Rubio, Zelenskyy Meet; Trump Seeks "End to Bloodshed"

Marco Rubio met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the Munich Security Conference on Saturday, where the senator stated that former President Donald Trump "wants a solution that ends the bloodshed once and for all," according to Fox News. The meeting occurred as Ukraine continues to seek security assurances amid ongoing conflict with Russia.

Zelenskyy reportedly secured a security pledge from the United States if fighting stops, as reported by Fox News, though Russia remains firm on its territorial demands and rejects the presence of NATO troops. The meeting took place on the sidelines of the conference, where other significant events unfolded.

Protests demanding regime change in Iran also took place at the Munich Security Conference, as reported by the NY Times, a day after Donald Trump said a change in government would be the best outcome for the country. Demonstrations were also held in cities worldwide, including Melbourne, Athens, Tokyo, and London. Nuclear talks between the United States and Iran were expected to resume in Geneva on Tuesday, according to the NY Times.

In other news, armed gunmen on motorcycles killed dozens of people in dawn raids across three villages in north-western Nigeria on Saturday, according to BBC World. The attacks, which occurred near the site of a suspected jihadist massacre earlier this month, involved the shooting and throat-slitting of victims, as well as the burning of homes and abduction of an undetermined number of people.

Also, Gisèle Pelicot, the woman at the center of France's largest rape trial, told BBC Newsnight she was "crushed by horror" upon discovering her husband had repeatedly drugged and raped her for years. She described the moment she realized the scale of her husband's crimes as "like a tsunami."

Finally, Prince Andrew is facing another accusation of sharing an official document, with reports that he gave a Treasury briefing to one of his personal business contacts, according to BBC Business. Emails published in the Telegraph suggest that in 2010, then Prince Andrew asked for information from Treasury officials on banking problems in Iceland, which was then shared with a business connection. This has led to more scrutiny of the former prince's use of his public role.
