- A proposal by European powers to deploy NATO-member troops in Ukraine as part of a proposed security guarantee and peace deal are unacceptable for Russia, said Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of Russia's Security Council.

"What kind of guarantee can we talk about if a foreign contingent of unfriendly NATO member states is stationed on the territory of such a state," Medvedev told Reuters, TASS and the WarGonzo Russian war blogger in an interview at his residence outside Moscow.

Medvedev said that Russia's terms for ending the conflict were unchanged from 2024 when President Vladimir Putin set them out in a speech at the foreign ministry.
