What are they discussing? Rubio : I am bombing Iran. Lavrov : I am bombing Ukraine. Rubio & Lavrov : We are bombing.

"If Saudi Arabia and Yemen engage in war, Makkah and Madinah will face missile attacks by non-believers."
@
what is the USA doing there and without Ukraine ... ?
@
Strange that its always the USA and Russia at the table, where is Ukraine's seat, who is protecting their interests, cause that does not appear to be a US concern.
@
There is no sense to have any talks with USA.
