Russian officials have renewed demands on NATO and European security as part of talks to end the war in Ukraine. The New York Times reports that a paper circulated by Russian officials in closed-door negotiations with envoys of President Trump seeks NATO pullbacks to 1997 positions. Newsweek reports that Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said Russian negotiators in Abu Dhabi had returned to the ideas of Moscow’s December 2021 draft security agreements. Bloomberg reports the demands are exposing divisions within Europe. Russia published those drafts in December 2021 and invaded Ukraine in early 2022.

How each side tells it

Compare views

All three outlets report Russia pressing its demands on NATO and European security in talks to end the war in Ukraine. The left-side outlets focus on a renewed hard line in closed-door talks; Newsweek sets the current demands beside the December 2021 ultimatum that preceded the 2022 invasion.

    Left-side headlines present Russia as reviving a hard-line demand that NATO retrench, and Bloomberg frames Putin as testing European unity under new pressure.
