"Finland out of NATO, no alliance bases in the Baltic states",

Russian negotiators have laid out broad demands for a deal aimed at ending the war in Ukraine during talks in Abu Dhabi. According to the German newspaper Bild, Moscow's proposals go beyond Ukrainian territory and aim to create a "new European security order."

The unofficial proposals, which have been conveyed to European representatives in Abu Dhabi, include demands that Finland leave NATO, as well as a ban on the deployment of the Alliance's military bases in the Baltic states: Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

According to the Bild report, in exchange for ending the war, Russia wants to keep all the Ukrainian territories it currently controls, as well as take over the entire Donbas region. This would mean that Ukraine would also give up the remaining areas of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions, which it continues to control.

The proposal also envisages the demilitarization of the ports of Odessa and Mykolaiv, prohibiting their use as naval bases. Meanwhile, special agreements would be established to guarantee freedom of navigation in the Black Sea and the Baltic Sea.

Another demand from Moscow is that Ukraine remain permanently neutral and renounce NATO membership, while not blocking its path to the European Union.

Russian demands also extend to Finland, which should be restored to the status it had before NATO membership. Moscow also wants the Alliance's military bases in the three Baltic states to be closed.

As for Moldova, the plan envisages the creation of a federal republic, consisting of the main Moldovan territory, Transnistria and Gagauzia. If Moldova were to join the European Union, Transnistria and Gagauzia would have the right to hold referendums on independence.

In exchange for these demands, the Russian side offers to withdraw nuclear weapons from Belarus and abandon the deployment of medium-range missiles in this country.

According to "Bild", these are unofficial proposals presented during negotiations and not an agreement reached between the parties.
