Blanket statement of desires from RU that align with what most thought would be the end goal.Dmitry Peskov said Moscow was demanding that Ukraine cease military action, change its constitution to enshrine neutrality, acknowledge Crimea as Russian territory, and recognise the separatist republics of Donetsk and Lugansk as independent states.

Ukraine should take that deal provided that Russia take their shit and go home, or to Donetsk, or Lugansk, or Crimea, or whatever lol.
Not sure why they should believe these criminals though.
Yeah,
if this deal was legit, Ukraine should take it. If Russia is not demanding an end to Ukraine's EU aspirations, or a change in government, or for ceding the regions around Kharkiv, Odessa and Dnipropetrovsk, then Ukraine would get away rather cheap. (The Russians will insist on keeping Mariupol though.)
This might just be stalling tactics by the Russians though, to buy some time to fix logistical problems, or to catch us off-guard once again before they start the attack on Kyiv.
