According to two people familiar with the case, Russia has presented the US with a list of a deal to end its war against Ukraine and reset relationships with Washington.
It is not clear what Moscow really included in its list or whether it is ready to engage in peace talks with Kiev before their acceptance. Russian and US officials discussed the conditions during the last three weeks during the in-year and virtual conversation, said people said.
He described the terms of Kremlin as comprehensive and equal, which were previously presented to Ukraine, America and NATO.
Earlier terms included no NATO membership for Kiev, who did not deploy foreign troops in Ukraine and there was an agreement for the international recognition of President Vladimir Putin that Crimeia and four are from Russia.
In recent years, Russia has also demanded the address of the US and NATO, which it has called the “root causes” of the war, including the expansion of NATO east.
US President Donald Trump is waiting for Putin for the term whether he would agree to the 30-day Trus, whether Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelanski said on Tuesday that he would consider the first step towards peace talks.
Putin’s commitment to a possible ceasefire agreement is still uncertain, yet finalized with details.
Some American officials, MPs and experts fears that former KGB officials Putin will use a Trus, which they say is an attempt to divide the US, Ukraine and Europe and to reduce any dialogue.
The Russian Embassy at Washington and the White House did not respond to the immediate remarks request.
In Kiev, Ukrainian President Volodimier Zelanski saw this week’s meeting as creative in Saudi Arabia between US and Ukrainian officials, and said that a potential 30-day ceasefire with Russia could be used to draft a wider peace deal.
Moscow has raised many of these demands in the last two decades, some have made their way into a formal conversation with the US and Europe.
Recently, Moscow discussed with the Biden administration in a series of meetings in late 2021 and in the beginning of 2022, thousands of Russian soldiers sat on the border of Ukraine, the tens of tens of tens of Ukraine, waited for the order to attack.
They include demands that will disrupt the US and NATO military operations from Eastern Europe to Central Asia.
Dismissing certain conditions, the Biden administration demanded a Reuters and many former US authorities reviewed by the US government documents, many of them demanded to remove the invasion by connecting with Russia.
The effort failed and Russia attacked on 24 February 2022.
In recent weeks, American and Russian officials have stated that a draft agreement discussed by Washington, Kiev and Moscow in Istanbul in 2022 may have a initial point for peace talks. Never compromised.
In those negotiations, Russia demanded that Ukraine abandoned its NATO ambitions and accepted a permanent atomic-free position. It also demanded a veto on action by those countries who wanted to help Ukraine in the event of war.
The Trump administration has not explained how it is talking to Moscow. Both sides are engaged in two different conversations: one on resetting US-Russia relations and the other on Ukraine peace agreement.
The administration seems divided on how to move forward.
The US Middle East Envoy Steve Witcoff, who is helping to lead the discussion with Moscow, described the Istanbul dialogue on CNN as “coonant and important talks” last month and said that they could be a guidapost to “make a peace deal.”
But Trump’s top Ukraine and Russia’s messenger, retired General Keith Kelog, last week told a council on foreign relations that he did not see the Istanbul agreement as a initial point.
“I think we have to develop something completely new,” he said.
Old demands
Experts say Russia’s demands are not only for shaping a final agreement with Ukraine, but also the basis of the agreement with its Western supporters.
Russia has made similar demands from the US over the last two decades – demands that will limit the West’s ability to create a strong military appearance in Europe and possibly allow Putin to expand its impact in the continent.
Angela Stent, a senior partner at the Brookings Institution, said, “There is no indication that Russians are ready to give any concession.” “Demands have not changed at all. I think they are not really interested in peace or a meaningful ceasefire.”
American intelligence officials concluded a adjacent Russian invasion, which was an adjacent Russian invasion, the senior biden administration officials, attached to the three demands of the Kremlin with the Russian counterparts, were reviewed by Reuters, according to the documents of the US government.
They were banned on military exercises by the US and other NATO forces over the areas of new coalition members and a ban on the deployment of American intermediate-ranges missile in Europe or elsewhere within the Russian region’s border.
Documents showed that the Russians also demanded military exercises from Eastern Europe to Caucasus from Eastern Europe to Caucasus and Central Asia by America or NATO.
Former Pentagon official Kori Shek said, “These are the same Russian demands that have been created since 1945.” “With the behavior of Trump administration in recent weeks, Europeans are not just afraid that we are leaving them, they are afraid that we have joined the enemy.”
