the whole thing (which i believe is the present us position) boils down to > ceasefire along the line of contact > ukraine neutrality, but with continued military support from nato countries, and bilateral defense treaties with nato countries, and troops from nato countries in ukraine (but no bases) > we're going to continue with sanctions and nato expansion > you can hold onto any land you conquered, for now. but we're never going to recognise your claims to it they're delusional. wonder what the next step is after lavrov tells them to shove their "deal" up their arse
