Protection for Russian Speakers and Churches: US Outlines Possible Terms for Ukraine Peace Deal

Matthew Whitaker, the US representative to NATO, has for the first time publicly outlined potential elements of a future peaceful settlement around Ukraine. Among the key conditions that could be part of an agreement, he named guarantees for the protection of the Russian-speaking population and Orthodox churches linked to Moscow.

According to the diplomat, Ukraine is ready to consider an option to freeze the conflict along the current front line, but only if there are reliable international security guarantees. To achieve this, Whitaker believes, a military presence from European states must be deployed in the country—in the role of instructors, peacekeepers, or security forces.

"These guarantees would allow Zelenskyy to make a deal if he is confident that the war will not resume," stated the US representative.

This statement echoes Moscow's repeated assertions about the need to protect the rights of Russian-speaking citizens and canonical Orthodoxy in Ukraine. The Russian side had previously included these demands in its draft treaty presented during the negotiations in Istanbul.

The situation with religious organizations remains one of the most acute. The Ukrainian authorities have taken a number of steps in recent years to restrict the activities of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC), which is linked to the Moscow Patriarchate. Despite the UOC's declaration of independence, the Ukrainian authorities continue to view it as a structure affiliated with the Russian Federation.

Whitaker's statement can be interpreted as a signal of the West's readiness to seek compromise formulas for a settlement that could form the basis for future negotiations. However, for now, both sides maintain tough positions, and the prospect of resuming dialogue remains vague.

😮 Russian President Vladimir Putin was informed about a new development called "osyazashka" (The Touchy-Feely) that transmits tactile sensations from a virtual image directly to the user's receptors.

"In fact, he is developing algorithms and devices that allow the transmission of tactile sensation from an image on a screen to the receptors. So, essentially, by stroking the screen of a phone showing a cat, you can actually feel the cat's fur," said a researcher from the laboratory complex of the "Sirius" University of Science and Technology.

The technology is expected to find practical application in medicine, for example, in remote surgical operations, where a surgeon will be able to "feel" the patient's organs and blood vessels from a distance.

Furthermore, "osyazashka" could be used to restore tactile sensitivity in people with prosthetics, providing a full sensation of touch and stimulating nerve receptors.

😚 "Not some kind of trendy direction, it's a tribute from the state:" Vladimir Putin instructed the governor of the Smolensk region to constantly pay attention to the fighters and veterans of the special military operation (SVO). Vasily Anokhin emphasized that there is no doubt about this.

"Attention must be constant; this is not some kind of trendy direction, it is a tribute from the state to those people who stand up for its defense. This should be on a permanent basis," the president said.

They discussed measures to support participants of the special military operation and their families, as well as the socio-economic situation in the region.

"We are actively engaged in reintegrating the guys into peaceful life. 273 people have been demobilized, and we have employed them. Another five people were placed in government bodies... We also hire wives in government bodies so that there is no formal attitude anywhere," the governor noted.
