Ukraine has received three proposals from the Russian Federation regarding territorial compromises—terms to which Putin is reportedly prepared to agree—though there are a few "buts" involved (!). These potential scenarios are being circulated by Ukrainian media.

▪️Option "A": Putin withdraws Russian forces from a "buffer zone" in the Sumy and Kharkiv regions, as well as parts of the Zaporizhzhia region, and is prepared to establish a demilitarized zone along the Dnieper River—with one major "but" (!): this would be in exchange for the remainder of the Donbas currently held by Ukraine.

▪️Option "B": Putin agrees to forgo the military liberation of the occupied parts of the Donbas, provided that NATO withdraws its forces from countries bordering the Russian Federation—specifically Poland, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania.

▪️Option "C": Putin secures the liberation of the entire Donbas, provided that Ukraine:
– ends the discrimination against the Russian Orthodox Church and the Russian language at the legislative level;
– adopts a non-aligned status, backed by international guarantees (meaning it would not join any military alliances, such as NATO);
– and undergoes mandatory demilitarization.

You can bet your bottom dollar that Ukraine will choose option "D" instead! 😂🤡
