Rubio's contention was that what happened in the ten days leading up to today's meeting led to a 'predictable outcome' and the meeting didn't even have to happen, claiming they were only here to sign the deal for minerals.

Don't come here and create a scenario where you're going to start lecturing us about how diplomacy isn't going to work. Zelensky took it in that direction and it ended in a predictable outcome as a result

I see. Thanx for that context.

For more context, before any of that happened, Trump got impeached for illegally withholding congress approved aid to Ukraine to pressure them into digging up damaging info on Biden.

Of course weak-willed republican sycophants voted to clear him of any wrongdoing but orange bastard is perhaps still mad that zelensky wouldn't lie for him.

Fascist bootlickers are counting on us forgetting that fact but I havent forgotten.

Maybe it was trump's illegal behavior that had more to do with "creating a scenario" than anything Zelensky did.
