The document was prepared in 2022, but was not signed. The New York Times publishes an alleged copy of the agreement. Main points from the document:
▪️ The states that guarantee the security and neutrality of Ukraine are Great Britain, China, Russia, USA, France. In brackets – Belarus and Türkiye
▪️ Ukraine must maintain permanent neutrality and not fight on the side of the guarantor state or any third state
▪️ Ukraine cannot conduct military exercises with the participation of foreign armed forces without the consent of the guarantor states.
▪️ The guarantor states pledged not to enter into military alliances with Ukraine, not to interfere in the internal affairs of the country and not to send troops into its territory.
▪️ All mutual sanctions and prohibitions between the Russian Federation and Ukraine are canceled, but a number of provisions of the agreement do not apply to Crimea, Sevastopol and a number of other territories
▪️ The maximum number of personnel, weapons and equipment for the Ukrainian Armed Forces in peacetime is no more than 342 tanks, 1029 armored fighting vehicles and 96 MLRS.
▪️ The maximum firing range of MLRS and missile weapons is no more than 280 km. Ukraine has pledged not to produce or buy weapons with a higher firing range in its country
I'm not Ukranian, but this deal sounds pretty frickin nice. I would like my country to accept these terms without a war with Russia.
Especially given the context of what happened to Ukraine in the past two years.
