Russia has presented the United States with a list of demands aimed at ending the ongoing war in Ukraine and resetting diplomatic relations with Washington, according to two people familiar with the matter. The specifics of Moscow's demands remain unclear, as does Russia's willingness to engage in peace talks with Kyiv before these demands are met. Over the past three weeks, Russian and American officials have discussed these terms through in-person and virtual meetings. The Kremlin's demands are described as broad and similar to previous requests made to Ukraine, the U.S., and NATO. These earlier demands included no NATO membership for Kyiv, no deployment of foreign troops in Ukraine, and international recognition of Russia's claim over Crimea and four Ukrainian provinces. U.S. President Donald Trump is awaiting a response from Russian President Vladimir Putin on whether he will agree to a proposed 30-day truce, which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has indicated he would accept as a first step toward peace talks. Russia has also insisted that the U.S. and NATO address what it refers to as the 'root causes' of the war, including NATO's eastward expansion. In Kyiv, President Zelenskiy described a recent meeting in Saudi Arabia between U.S. and Ukrainian officials as constructive, suggesting that a potential 30-day ceasefire with Russia could be used to draft a broader peace deal. The Russian embassy in Washington and the White House have not yet responded to requests for comment on these developments.
