Asked whether he thought it would be possible to achieve a ceasefire by the end of this year, Budanov replied: “I think so”.
This is a paradoxical situation. Despite the fact that the starting positions of the parties are as diametrically opposed as possible, I think we will come to a ceasefire this year. How long and effective it will be is another question. But the fact that it will happen... I think something will happen. There are most of the components for this to happen
