Putin envoy says US, Russia close to a ‘diplomatic solution,’ believes war in Ukraine will be over within a year


Russian President Vladimir Putin’s special envoy claimed Washington and Moscow were close to a “diplomatic solution” to the war in Ukraine, estimating that the conflict would end within a year.

Speaking before an investment conference in Saudi Arabia on Wednesday, Kirill Dmitriev suggested that Russia’s invasion was nearing its end despite the recent decision to postpone a second summit between Putin and President Trump.

“We are sure that we are on the road to peace and as peacemakers we need to make it happen,” Dmitriev said, adding that he believes the war would end within one year.
