🧵Peace talks in Istanbul: in exchange for its neutrality, #Ukraine wants security guarantees analogues to NATO's article 5 if attacked, it has a right to demand consultations, and if diplomacy fails, signees of the agreement must provide military aid and "even close the sky".

Russia says military activities in the Kyiv and Chernihiv areas will be reduced for the sake of mutual trust.
