Russia to Demand Ukraine Destroy Western Weapons to End War, Senior Kremlin Official Says
- On June 16, a senior Russian diplomat announced that Moscow will require Ukraine to dismantle and eliminate all Western-provided arms as a condition for any ceasefire agreement.
- This demand follows Moscow's earlier presentation of a so-called 'peace memorandum' on June 2 in Istanbul, which included several maximalist conditions rejected by Ukraine and allies.
- Grushko cautioned that the market is being dangerously oversupplied with weapons by certain politicians, and he insisted that these arms need to be eliminated and handled under international monitoring to prevent security threats and the growth of illicit arms trading.
- In several prisoner swaps following recent talks in Istanbul, authorities returned over 6,000 remains of Ukrainian soldiers, while ongoing Russian drone assaults continue to inflict injuries on civilians and cause damage in Kyiv.
- Despite ongoing negotiations and ceasefire proposals, no political breakthrough has occurred, and Ukraine firmly rejects Moscow’s demands, insisting on ending hostilities and continuing Western support for defense.
