Russian President Vladimir Putin’s adviser Kirill Dmitriev said that Moscow, Washington and Kiev are “very close” to a diplomatic agreement to end the Ukraine war. He made the comments in an interview with CNN after arriving in Washington for meetings with US officials.
\n“The meeting between President Putin and US President Donald Trump has not been canceled. It will take place later,” Dmitriev said. “The meeting between the two leaders will probably take place at a later date,” he said. He added that talks were continuing despite new US sanctions on Russia’s energy sector.
\nAccording to European diplomats, as quoted by Reuters, EU countries are preparing a new ceasefire proposal that is consistent with the previous framework and would keep the United States as the main mediator. \u201cIt\u2019s a big step for Zelensky that he\u2019s now acknowledging the reality of the border,\u201d Dmitriev said, adding that it could help build bridges between the warring parties.
\nDmitriev\u2019s visit to the United States comes as Washington imposes new sanctions on two major Russian oil companies. But the Kremlin\u2019s special envoy insisted that \u201cthe dialogue between Russia and the United States will continue.\u201d
\nHe also warned that \u201cthe US sanctions could have the opposite effect, as they could increase the price of gasoline in the United States.\u201d According to a report by Axios, Dmitriev will meet with President Trump\u2019s special envoy, Steve Witkoff, in Miami on Saturday. Meanwhile, Russian news agency TASS reported that he will also attend several other unspecified meetings.
