Rubio: Russia and Ukraine Signal Interest in Limited Energy, Grain Ceasefire
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio reports both Russia and Ukraine have expressed interest in a limited ceasefire covering energy infrastructure and grain exports. This is a diplomatic signal, not a confirmed agreement, and would not end the war but could mitigate global energy and food supply disruptions. The claim is based on Rubio's statement, with no independent corroboration of either side's position.
