Putin: Ukraine must demilitarize and "denazify" for peace

​Moscow rebuffed Ukraine’s proposal for a peace summit early next year by demanding that Kyiv meet the Kremlin’s requirements of “demilitarization” and “denazification” or “the Russian army will solve the issue.”

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov ​on Tuesday ​also accused NATO and the United States of wanting to destroy Russia “on the battlefield” as part of their larger goal to weaken the country “economically and strategically.”

“The enemy is well aware of our proposals on the demilitarization and denazification of the territories controlled by the regime, the elimination of threats to Russia’s security emanating from there, including our new lands,” Lavrov said Tuesday, according to state-run media.
