The combined losses of Russia and Ukraine in the three-plus years of war have reached 1.2 million people, US special presidential envoy Keith Kellogg said. "President Trump is absolutely right. We have to stop this killing. When you look at the numbers… this is mass murder – on an industrial scale. The losses on both sides are already 1.2 million," he told Fox News.
According to Kellogg, the losses of Moscow and Kyiv have already exceeded the number of killed and wounded Americans who participated in World War II. According to open data, from 1941 to 1945, the US armed forces lost 418 thousand killed and 670 thousand wounded.
Indiscriminate attacks on cities continue in the Russian-Ukrainian war. "This is an unacceptable path," Trump's special representative also emphasized.
The confirmed losses of the Russian Armed Forces by name, according to the calculations of the BBC and Mediazona, exceeded 108 thousand people. 5037 of them are officers (including 10 generals). The British Ministry of Defense, citing its military intelligence, reported 950,000 killed and wounded Russian soldiers.
NATO officials provide similar data: according to them, 250 thousand Russian soldiers and officers have died in three years, and the total number of Russian losses has exceeded 900 thousand. According to estimates by the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), about 376 thousand Russians sent to the front were seriously wounded and became disabled.
Kellogg also said that Kyiv had sent Washington a list of conditions for a future peace agreement with Moscow, and the US was now waiting for such a document from the Kremlin. Once that happened, America would "combine" the two messages to find "a common ground," he added.
After that, according to Trump's special envoy, the next meeting of the delegations of Russia and Ukraine will take place, which could take place in Geneva (Switzerland). "We would like to hold it in the Vatican, and we were ready, but the Russians did not want to go there. So I think Geneva could be the place for the next meeting," Trump's special envoy noted.
