Russia will seek guarantees that Nato will exclude Ukraine from membership and that Ukraine will remain neutral in any peace deal, a Russian deputy foreign minister said.
"We will demand that ironclad security guarantees become part of this agreement," Alexander Grushko told Russian media outlet Izvestia.
"Part of these guarantees should be the neutral status of Ukraine, the refusal of Nato countries to accept it into the alliance," he said.
It comes as US President Donald Trump and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin are expected to speak in the coming days, as talks continue over a possible ceasefire in the three-year war in Ukraine.
The US and Ukraine have agreed to propose a 30-day ceasefire to Russia.
While Putin said that he supported a ceasefire, he also set out a list of tough conditions for achieving peace.
