Ya, we will see if the Istanbul Draft is the basis of peace. But, one thing is for sure, Trump is putting an end to this US proxy war with Russia.

MOSCOW, March 7 (Reuters) - Russia and the U.S. both see draft accords discussed by Moscow and Kyiv in the early weeks of the war as a possible basis for a Ukraine peace deal, the Kremlin said on Friday, though Ukraine's president has previously rejected them as unacceptable.

The draft documents - discussed at talks in Istanbul at the end of March 2022 - would have obliged Ukraine to give up its NATO ambitions and accept permanent neutral and nuclear-free status, in return for security guarantees from the United States, Russia, China, Britain and France - the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council.

Asked about Russia's position on the Istanbul draft, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Friday:

"In Washington, we have also heard statements that this could become a basis, a starting point for negotiations. And, of course, President (Vladimir) Putin said that the negotiations could have the Istanbul Agreements as a starting point."

Ukrainian foreign ministry spokesman Heorhii Tykhyi said last week that Kyiv had not received any proposals from the U.S. to use the Istanbul documents as a basis for peace negotiations.

There was no chance of the war ending if Harris had won. Like Biden she would have continued sending billions to Zelensky to keep the war going.
