Drastic conditions In a memorandum transmitted to kyiv this Monday, June 2, outside the conversations in Istanbul and published by the Russian news agencies, Russia demanded that kyiv withdraw his front troops before any cessation of the fight.
Before “the establishment of a high 30 -day fire”, Moscow states that the Ukrainian army retires from the Ukrainian regions partially occupied by the Russian army and whose annexation in 2022: Donetsk, Lougansk, Zaporijia and Kherson.
“International” recognition of Russian annexations
This memorandum, which also defines the Russian requirements for the end of the conflict in Ukraine, establishes the “international legal recognition” of these regions and Crimea attached in 2014 as Russian territories.
It also requires the lifting of economic sanctions and that Ukraine renounces the repairs of Russia, which launched a large large -scale offensive against its neighbor in 2022.
It is also the “neutrality” of Ukraine and its renunciation of the integration of military alliances, while kyiv aims to join NATO. The size of its army must also be limited, according to this document.
This three -page document published by the state agencies of Tass and Ria Novosti also mentions the deliveries of Western weapons to kyiv and at the end of the exchange of information, as well as a prohibition of displaying nuclear weapons in Ukraine.
It also establishes that Ukraine releases the “political prisoners”, soldiers and civilians who possess, as well as their commitment to respect “the rights, freedoms and interests of Russian speakers” in their territory.
Echoing the will shown from Moscow for “Denazify” to its neighbor, the document establishes the dissolution of the “Ukrainian nationalist training” within the Armed Forces. These maximalist requests have already been rejected by Ukraine in the past.
This Monday in Istanbul, the Russian delegation rejected the term offer of high global fire on the table by kyiv and offered a partial truce in “two or three days” and only in “certain areas of the front.”
