Moscow -based think tank lays out Russia ’s maximalist demands for any end to the conflict in Ukraine .

It rejects any plan to dispatch peacekeepers to Ukraine , as some in Europe have proposed.

The document was prepared by a think tank working closely with the FSB 's Fifth Service , the division that oversees operations in Ukraine , in the week ahead of talks between Russia and the United States in Riyadh , Saudi Arabia .

FSB-linked document dismisses what it says are initial proposals made by Trump ’s special envoy for Ukraine .

It says even this type of settlement does not go far enough and that without official recognition of Russian sovereignty over the seized region, it is “fairly likely” the armed conflict will resume in the medium term.
