Secretary of State Marco Rubio defended President Donald Trump on Sunday from those who criticized the president for meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin . Many consider Putin a war criminal for his invasion and subsequent war against Ukraine and other geopolitical aggressive incidents in the past.

Rubio suggested it would be impossible to negotiate any peace deal without speaking to Putin, and it only happened because of Trump’s astute brilliance. He also lauded the president as the only world leader who could even get Putin to discuss “serious things.”
