NATO distances itself from discussions on Putin's demands to Ukraine.

NATO leadership rejects Russian demands for written commitments not to expand the Alliance eastward. This information was obtained from anonymous insiders and diplomats of NATO.

According to the information received, one of the conditions for ending the war with Ukraine put forward by Putin was a written commitment not to expand. However, there have been no discussions on this topic within NATO leadership.

According to one insider, the issue of potential NATO expansion has never been raised at the bloc's meetings. Another diplomat emphasized that a written commitment not to expand 'is not something they can just obtain easily.'

States have the right to freely choose to join alliances, as enshrined in international treaties such as the North Atlantic Treaty of 1949 and other acts that guarantee the independence and territorial integrity of states.
