Dmitriev pointed to the approach to the end of the era of false narratives

The era of false narratives is coming to an end. This was announced on May 9 by Kirill Dmitriev, head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF).

This is how he responded to the publication of the Clash Report, which quoted Stephen Witkoff, special envoy of US President Donald Trump, as saying that it is impossible to resolve the Ukrainian conflict without direct talks between Trump and Russian leader Vladimir Putin.

"Really. The era of false narratives is ending. The truth is breaking out," Dmitriev wrote on the social network X (ex. Twitter).

Earlier in the day, Witkoff called the refusal to negotiate with Russia on the conflict in Ukraine absurd. He stressed that dialogue with key parties to the conflict is necessary.
