Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Growko has reported that Kremlin wants a guarantee of “IronClade” that Ukraine will be banned from joining the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), as the Trump administration works to broker the fight.
Russian newspaper Izwestia said, “We will demand that IronClade security guarantees become part of this agreement.” “A part of these guarantees should be a neutral state of Ukraine, NATO countries should refuse to accept it in connection.”
Ukraine’s 30-day ceasefire proposal with US negotiators in Saudi Arabia last week was reported to have been reported. Russian President Vladimir Putin has stated that any agreement must first meet critical conditions.

Steve Vitcoffe’s special envoy from the Middle East told CNN on Sunday that Trump and Putin are expected to speak on the phone this week. Vitcoff himself described the “positive” and “solution-based” meeting with Putin in Moscow last week.
Grokeo repeated in an interview with Izvestia that Russia strongly opposed Ukraine deployment of European troops, as Britain, France and Australia Stralia have indicated that the NATO “Piecekeeping” force was open to the country.
“NATO troops on the Ukrainian region do not make any difference under which labels are to be deployed: they are in the European Union, NATO or national capacity,” Grusko said, according to Reuters. “If they appear there, that means they are deployed in the field of conflict with all the results for these troops as parties of conflict.”

“We can talk about Ni AR arms observers, a civilian mission that will monitor the implementation of the individual aspects of this agreement, or guarantee the mechanisms,” Grusks added that the deal should arrive first. “In the meantime, it’s just hot air.”
United Kingdom Prime Minister Care Starmar held a virtual meeting on Saturday with a potential 26 countries to join the “Peacekeeping Force” in Ukraine, the telegraph reported.
French President Emmanuel Macron, meanwhile, was cited by several French media outlets on Saturday that “the purpose of deploying a few thousand men per nation on the main issues was to carry out training programs” and “show our support in the long run”.
“If Ukraine asks allied forces to stay on its territory, it is not to accept Russia or not,” Macron said.

Australian Strelia’s Prime Minister Anthony Albanis also said he would be ready to send troops.
Growko further argued that if the European colleagues understand Kiw’s allies, the three -year conflict can be resolved only to sustain that Ukraine must be banned from NATO membership and to keep foreign military troops out.

“Then in the wider sense Ukraine and the entire region will be confirmed, as one of the root causes of the conflict will be removed,” Grusko said.
