“The details have been worked out in the system of other documents.

It has been determined what forces are needed. It has been determined how the forces will be managed, at what levels the command there will be.”

"We think we're largely finished with security protocols which are important so that the people of Ukraine know that when this ends, it ends forever. But we also think, critically, that we are very, very close to finishing up as robust a prosperity agreement as any country has ever seen coming out of conflicts like this."

The Russian military said on January 9 it had fired its hypersonic Oreshnik missile at a target in Ukraine in response to what it described as an attempted Ukrainian drone strike on one of President Vladimir Putin's residences in December.

Russia's Defence Ministry on January 30 shared drone footage of soldiers holding up Russian flags in Ternuvate, a village in Ukraine's southeastern Zaporizhzhia region, that Moscow says its forces recently captured.
