This is a Russian memorandum on the war settlement that was presented to the Ukrainian side during talks in Istanbul.

Some of these proposals include:

- International, legal recognition of the annexation of the Crimea, as well as Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, Donetsk and Luhansk Oblasts of Ukraine by Russia;

- Complete withdrawal of Ukrainian forces from these territories;

- The declaration of neutrality by Ukraine, "which implies its refusal to join military alliances and coalitions, as well as a ban on any military activity by third states on the territory of Ukraine and the deployment of foreign armed formations, military bases and military infrastructure there."

RT @maxseddon: Tass have published Russia's memorandum, which it refused to hand over to Ukraine until the peace talks in Istanbul today.

The demands basically amount to surrender, regime change, and putting Ukraine back in Russia's grip. They are:

1) Ukraine withdraws from four partially occupied regions (Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, Zaporizhzhia) and lets Russia have them. "International recognition" follows.
2) Ukraine pledges never to join any military alliances or coalitions (NATO etc). No foreign boots on the ground or military infrastructure either.
3) Any current or future efforts to this end are rolled back or banned.
4) No nuclear weapons for Ukraine.
5) Caps on Ukraine's military. Far-right units are disbanded.
6) "Full guarantee of rights for Russian speakers." Russian becomes an official language.
7). Ban on "glorification and promoting of Nazism and neo-Nazism." Nationalist parties and groups are disbanded.
8) All western sanctions are lifted....
