Vladimir Putin has said Russia will immediately cease fire and begin negotiations to end the war in Ukraine in exchange for control of four frontline Ukrainian regions, a proposal immediately rejected by Kyiv.

“***New territorial realities must be recognised,”*** Putin said in a speech to foreign policy officials on Friday. ***“All these basic principal conditions must be set through fundamental international agreements. Naturally, this involves the cancellation of all western sanctions against Russia.”*** Under Putin’s conditions, Russia would gain full control of Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia.

He also called for Kyiv to never develop nuclear weapons and to pursue ***its “demilitarisation” and “denazification”,*** two vague goals Russia set out at the start of the invasion.

**These are not vague goals-**

The Russian president’s demands represent the most specific conditions he has set for a possible end to the war since he ordered the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

**Very similar, dare I say, nearly identical conditions were presented in March 2022**– **So more perception managing gibberish** **from FT’s**

***“Today we are making another specific, real peace offering. If Kyiv and western capitals refuse it as they did before, then that’s their issue at the end of the day — their political and moral responsibility for the continued bloodshed,” Putin said. “Obviously, the facts on the ground at the front will continue to change, not in the Kyiv regime’s favour, and the conditions to begin negotiations will be different.”***
