Direct speech: “We will, of course, consider any appeals on this topic, as well as on other topics related to the need to return at least relative normalcy to relations between Moscow and Washington. But schedules, routes are all matters of neither today nor tomorrow day”.
Details: Ryabkov also commented on the upcoming appointment of Keith Kellogg, the US special representative for Ukraine. According to him, there is no understanding in the Russian Federation about the timetable for General Kellogg’s appointment.
Direct speech: “We do not have any understanding, firstly, about the timetable for General Kellogg’s inauguration, for the position that President-elect Trump has outlined for him as the direction of his activities. And even more so, we do not have the slightest nominal impulses about what might be his intentions in terms of making contacts.”
We will remind:
- In January 2025, Keith Kellogg, chosen by Donald Trump for the post of special representative for Ukraine and Russia, will visit Kyiv and several other European capitals. Kellogg plans to meet with the Ukrainian leadership in Kyiv, and his team is working on organizing meetings with leaders in other European capitals, including Rome and Paris. A visit to Moscow is not planned.
- Earlier, Kellogg said that he was preparing certain visits to “listen” to the position of the parties to a full-scale war.
- As is known, Donald Trump’s team is currently considering a plan to end hostilities in Ukraine, and he himself recently assured that he had made “some progress.”
- At the end of November, Trump announced that he had chosen retired general Keith Kellogg as his “special representative for Ukraine and Russia.”
