Russia wants to quickly end the Ukraine conflict
Special Representative of Russian President Kirill Dmitriev said that Moscow wants to quickly end the Ukraine conflict through diplomacy as soon as possible.
According to RIA Novosti on October 25, Director of the Russian Investment Fund (RDIF), special envoy of the Russian President on foreign investment cooperation, Kirill Dmitriev, in an interview with CNN on October 24, said that Russia is very interested in ending the conflict in Ukraine as soon as possible.
"We want it as soon as possible. We all want this conflict to end diplomatically," said Kirill Dmitriev.
Earlier, in an interview with Fox News, the special representative of the Russian president noted that the solution to the Ukrainian conflict revolves around only a few factors, including the territorial issue, neutrality and security guarantees of Ukraine.
"Yes, Russia is ready to ensure Ukraine's security. Of course, there is a territorial issue involving Russian people, who were attacked by Ukrainian forces even before the conflict began. In addition, there is the issue of Ukraine's neutrality, which is very important for Russia's security," Mr. Dmitriev said.
The head of RDIF noted that in order to find a compromise on the Ukrainian conflict, accelerating the resolution alone will not be enough. Mr. Dmitriev said that the US side may have misunderstood this process. He also expressed confidence that the next summit between the leaders of Russia and the US will take place, "but maybe later."
Mr. Dimitriev traveled to Washington to negotiate with the US government, conveying to colleagues the reason for the prolonged negotiations with Ukraine. The RDIF director told reporters that several meetings were planned, but in an interview with Fox News, he refused to confirm the upcoming meeting with US President's special envoy Steve Whitkoff.
