Russia could be about to accept a truce if Ukraine adopts an Austrian-Swedish-like military status, as negotiations continue between the two countries.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Wednesday peace talks were sounding more realistic but more time was needed, as Russian air strikes killed five people in the capital Kyiv and the refugee tally from Moscow’s invasion reached three million.
According to the latest press briefing from the Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, Russia could be ready to accept that Ukraine adopts a “neutral” non-aligned military status that would enable Kyiv to keep its army.
Journalist Kevin Rothrock tweeted a translation of Mr Peskov’s note, saying: “Seemingly very good news: Moscow signals that it might accept Austrian/Swedish-style neutrality in Ukraine. ie Kyiv would pledge to be nonaligned (no foreign military bases) but retain its own military. Russia might accept this as ‘de-militarization’.
“Dropping sanctions will be key.”
“This is a variant that is currently being discussed and which could really be seen a compromise,” Mr Peskov was quoted as saying by RIA news agency.
The reference to demilitarisation appeared to relate to the idea of neutral status for Ukraine.
Ukraine was promised by NATO as far back as 2008 that it would one day become a member of the alliance.
Russia has said it cannot allow that to happen, and cited it as part of the logic for what it calls its special military operation in Ukraine, according to Daily Express.
Peskov was commenting on remarks from Vladimir Medinsky, Russia’s chief negotiator, who earlier told state TV: “Ukraine is offering an Austrian or Swedish version of a neutral demilitarized state, but at the same time a state with its own army
