Proposal to end the Ukraine – Russia war

Proposal to end the Ukraine – Russia war

1.      Ceasefire from both parts.

2.      Ukraine’s sovereignity is undisputed.

3.      In the territories occupied by Russia (Luhansk and Donetsk) there will be stationed Russian, NATO and UN troops to guarantee the ceasefire and that the hostilities don’t resume. This will last for a minimum of two years needed to stabilize the situation.

4.      Ukraine will retreat its troops from these territories, however Ukrainian soldiers and officials will join the NATO and UN troops stationing in the territories.

5.      For later times the occupied territories will become independent nations, satellites to Russia (like Belarus is) for at least 5 years, after which their independence could be changed via diplomatic means.

6.      Ukraine is entitled to enclaves within these territories. It could be argued that Russia can have some minor ones as well.

7.      Russia’s assets will remain seized for the totality of these 7 years.

8.      Sanctions against Russia will remain in place for 2 more years, then they will start to get removed slowly on a case by case scenario.

9.      Ukraine is entitled to fortify its territory, join NATO or the EU.

10. The Ukrainian citizens that remain in the occupied territories will not be deported, nor persecuted. UN and Nato will check if this is respected.

11. Prisoners exchange as usual in these situations.

12. Russia will rejoin G8.

13. … the rest can go similarly as other peace treaties.
