KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Thursday that the U.S. and Russia have exchanged new ideas for Ukraine peace talks after he met with his Russian counterpart in Malaysia Thursday.

The discussion in Malaysia follows Trump’s harsh criticism of Putin and pledge to resume military aid to Kyiv.

In a surprising diplomatic turn, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov held two high-level meetings at the ASEAN Summit in Kuala Lumpur, with the war in Ukraine at the center of their discussions.
