The foreign minister called a 10-point blueprint promoted by Kyiv ‘not feasible’, and added that a UN proposal to revive the Ukraine grain deal would not work.

    Speaking at a news conference at the United Nations on Saturday, the minister called a 10-point peace blueprint promoted by Kyiv “completely not feasible”.

    Kyiv’s plan:

    Energy security, with a focus on price restrictions on Russian energy resources

    Restoring Ukraine’s territorial integrity and Russia reaffirming it according to the UN Charter

    Withdrawal of Russian troops and the cessation of hostilities, the restoration of Ukraine’s state borders with Russia

    Justice, including the establishment of a special tribunal to prosecute Russian war crimes

    building security architecture in the Euro-Atlantic space, including guarantees for Ukraine.

    What leverage does Ukraine think they have to institute such a blatantly pro-Ukraine peace resolution? Based on Ukraine’s proposed plan, you’d think they were at the sea of Azov and halfway to Moscow, rather than stuck in a few salients along the same frontline they were at a year ago.
