Marco Rubio: Russian losses in the war in Ukraine for July 2025

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio reported that the losses of Russian troops in terms of personnel during the war in Ukraine for July 2025 were around 20 thousand soldiers. He made this statement on Sunday, August 17, in his tweet.

Rubio noted that just last month, Ukrainian forces destroyed around 20 thousand Russian soldiers. This indicates the high price that Russians are paying for the war.

The U.S. Secretary of State also emphasized that attempts to find a resolution to the conflict between the parties are continuing. Rubio highlighted that the situation at the front is complicated by the significant losses that Russian troops are suffering from Ukrainian forces.

The U.S. calls for reconciliation between the parties to the conflict and continues to work towards ending a war that should never have started.

Marco Rubio also noted that the United States will not pressure Ukraine to make territorial concessions in favor of Russia during a peace settlement. It is important for both sides to find a compromise and end the war. It is noted that President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed that the country's Constitution does not allow for giving up territory.

In July 2025, Russian troops suffered serious losses fighting against Ukrainian forces, with approximately 20 thousand soldiers reported lost, stated Marco Rubio. The U.S. continues to support reconciliation between the parties and works towards ending the war in the complex territories of Ukraine.
