US to evaluate Russian demands for Black Sea ceasefire

Published on March 27, 2025 at 10:11 AM

The US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio said on Wednesday that the United States will evaluate demands made by Russia after Moscow had agreed in principle to a US-brokered ceasefire with Ukraine in the Black Sea to allow safe navigation.

Recall that the US announced separate Black Sea agreements with Ukraine and Russia on Tuesday, following talks in Saudi Arabia, to ensure safe navigation, stop attacks, and prevent the use of commercial vessels for military purposes.

Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022.

US President Donald Trump, who took office on January 20, has been pushing for an end to the war following a rapid US rapprochement with Moscow that has alarmed Kyiv and European allies.

“After our meeting (in Saudi Arabia) … the Russians detailed a number of conditions that they want to see met in order to do that, so we're going to evaluate that,” Rubio told reporters on Wednesday during a visit to Jamaica.

According to him, US officials would work to more fully understand what the Russian position is, or what they are asking in exchange, and then the US will present that to the President and make a decision about the next step.

The conditions listed in a statement by the Kremlin on Tuesday, including the lifting of restrictions and sanctions on a major agricultural bank, exporters of food and fertilizer and on Russian vessels, largely mirror demands made by Moscow two years ago during talks to extend a Black Sea deal first agreed in July 2022.
