Moscow diplomat hints at Ukraine truce prospects as global markets weigh peace signals

At a regional policy forum, Russian envoy Dmitriev said dialogue channels were gradually reopening, creating room for a negotiated resolution to the Ukraine conflict within the next year. His remarks emphasized rebuilding supply chains and energy trade, which have suffered under sanctions and transport disruptions. Economists observed that improved relations could stabilize commodity exports and inflation trajectories worldwide. Although officials stopped short of formal commitments, analysts described the tone as the most conciliatory seen in over eighteen months of tension.
