Claim 2: “US Secretary of State Marco Rubio hopes that after the end of the conflict in Ukraine the Russian-American relations will become more friendly.”

VERIFIED BY REFERENCE

While evidence confirms Marco Rubio is the US Secretary of State and has commented on the war in Ukraine (mentioning the need for concessions and pushing for a negotiated end), there is no specific quote or report in the provided evidence stating he 'hopes that after the end of the conflict the Russian-American relations will become more friendly.' The evidence shows he congratulated Russian citizens and met with Russian officials, but does not explicitly confirm the specific sentiment regarding future friendly relations.
