Georgia's non-accession to NATO named as one of the conditions for the Kremlin's ceasefire with Ukraine

Russian President Vladimir Putin has put forward four key conditions for ending the war in Ukraine. This was reported to Reuters by sources.

The first condition is guarantees of Ukraine's non-accession to NATO, as well as the exclusion of Georgia and Moldova from joining the alliance even at the discussion level. The second is recognition of Ukraine's neutral status and its refusal of military alliances. Next is the partial lifting of sanctions and the unfreezing of Russian gold and foreign exchange assets by the West. And finally, the fourth is the protection of the Russian-speaking population in Ukraine.

Recall that the Constitution of Georgia enshrines accession to NATO as a goal, but the Georgian Dream government has stopped publicly raising this issue.
