Russian-Ukrainian delegates to meet in Istanbul for peace negotiations
Russia is planning to drop its demand that Ukraine is 'denazified,' and is willing to allow the nation to join the EU if it stays militarily non-aligned as part of peace negotiations, The Financial Times reported.
According to FT's sources, the proposed ceasefire agreement does not address three of Russia's initial demands- denazification," "demilitarisation," and legal protection for the Russian language in Ukraine.
Moreover, Russia appears to be willing to leave Kyiv's leadership in place.
