According to him, the two main unresolved issues are the territory – primarily the future of Donbas – and the future of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, which is controlled by the Russian Federation.

“If we solve those two problems, I think the rest of the issues will be solved pretty well. We’re really close,” Kellogg said.

He also added that the scale of deaths and injuries caused by the Russian Federation’s war against Ukraine is “terrible” and unprecedented for a regional war.
