During talks between Ukrainian, U.S., and European officials in London on Wednesday, Kyiv put forward five main demands for a future ceasefire agreement with Russia, The Telegraph reports.

Ukraine’s central demand is that occupied Crimea cannot officially be recognized as Russian territory. “…Ukraine hopes to effectively strip out any formal international recognition of Russian sovereignty over Crimea or other occupied territories,” The Telegraph writes.

“Points one and two focus on framing any peace deal as ‘rooted in international law, not capitulation’, with a specific warning over China’s possible invasion of Taiwan,” the article continues.

The document Ukraine gave to the U.S. also stresses the need for firm security guarantees as part of any peace agreement that would have Ukraine cede territory to Russia, even temporarily.

The third point, according to The Telegraph, states that Ukraine must be brought back to “the heart of the peace process.” The fourth warns the U.S. and NATO that as long as Russia retains control of Crimea, it will be able to threaten not only Ukraine but also other Black Sea nations — Turkey, Romania, and Bulgaria.

The fifth point argues that any peace deal must not allow Russia to limit the size of Ukraine’s armed forces or its defense industry.

U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer told the paper that the talks are “at an intense stage” and that he hopes a long-term ceasefire could be announced by summer.
