Moscow demanded that London abandon its nuclear defense of Europe.
This condition is included in the list of Russian demands for resolving the conflict in Ukraine, the "Telegraph" writes. The publication notes that apart from the Russian Federation, only Britain and France have nuclear weapons in Europe.
According to the newspaper, Moscow also insists on the withdrawal of NATO forces from Eastern Europe and the Baltic states, the exclusion of Finland from the alliance and the refusal to send foreign troops to Ukraine.
Other conditions include the cessation of Western arms supplies to Kiev and Ukraine's refusal to join NATO. According to the "Telegraph", only after these demands are met, Russia is ready to discuss a ceasefire.
