U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has announced Ukrainian officials have agreed to President Donald Trump's newest proposal to end the Russia-Ukraine war.

It now will go to Russia, with American hopes that officials there also will agree.

Social media announced, "JUST IN: President Trump has secured a ceasefire agreement from Ukraine, according to Secretary Rubio. Rubio says the ball is now in Russia's court."

He explained, "Today, we've made an offer that the Ukrainians have accepted, which is to enter into a ceasefire and into immediate negotiations to end this conflict."

He said the goal is the end the war "in a way that's enduring and sustainable and accounts for their interests. their security. their ability to prosper as a nation."

Rubio thanked the King of Saudi Arabia for holding the discussions.

"We'll take this offer now to the Russians. We'll hope that they say yes. That they'll say yes to peace," Rubio said.

Trump National Security Adviser Mike Waltz said the world has gone, under Trump's leadership, from wondering if the war was going to end to working on how it will end.
