What are Russia's demands regarding Ukraine in the ongoing conflict?

Russia demands that Ukraine withdraw its troops from regions annexed in September 2022, including Crimea, Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson. Beyond currently occupied territories, Russia insists Ukraine cede additional territory in eastern and southern Ukraine (approximately 30% of areas Russia doesn't yet control), disband its military, and become a demilitarized neutral state. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has firmly dismissed any possibility of Russia making territorial concessions in negotiations. Additionally, Russia may extend demands to include reduction or full withdrawal of NATO forces from Eastern European countries including Poland, the Baltic States, and Romania as part of broader demilitarization requirements.
