Putin's Peace Demands Challenge Ukraine Negotiations Amid U.S. Rifts

News summary

Western security officials report that Russian President Vladimir Putin is unlikely to compromise on key demands regarding territory, peacekeepers, and Ukraine's neutrality in ongoing peace talks, complicating U.S. efforts to negotiate a ceasefire. Putin's 'maximalist' demands are expected to be unacceptable to both Ukraine and European nations, and he is prepared to continue the conflict if his conditions are not met. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov has countered these claims, insisting that Russia is open to peaceful negotiations and prefers diplomatic solutions. The U.S. and Ukrainian officials are currently in Saudi Arabia discussing a potential ceasefire, with Ukraine signaling openness to negotiations contingent on a halt to Russian military operations. However, the complexity of the situation is heightened by diverging views, including U.S. President Trump's belief that Putin desires peace. The outcome of these discussions may hinge on further clarity regarding peacekeeping frameworks and the involvement of non-NATO countries.
