This warning emphasizes Russia&#8217;s continued military pressure and its assertion of control over disputed areas, as reported by the <strong>TASS<\/strong> news agency.<\/p>\n<h3>Proposed Peace Plan and Legitimacy Questions<\/h3>\n<p>Putin further elaborated on a proposed <strong>28-point peace plan<\/strong> that was reportedly negotiated with representatives from Ukraine and the <strong>USA<\/strong> in <strong>Geneva<\/strong>. He outlines that this roadmap could serve as a foundation for future agreements, divided into four distinct phases. Remarkably, Putin has also questioned the legitimacy of the Ukrainian government, asserting that elections must be conducted promptly after peace accords are finalized, with martial law in <strong>Kyiv<\/strong> put on hold.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/1764266949_765_Putins-Two-Demands-Elections-Must-Happen-in-Ukraine-or-Well.JPG\" alt=\"The Russian president warns that Russian forces will forcibly expel Ukrainian troops if they do not leave controlled areas (Sputnik\/Alexander Kazakov\/REUTERS)\" class=\"global-image\"\/><\/p>\n<h3>Key Points of Discussion<\/h3>\n<p>During discussions surrounding the peace plan, Putin emphasized the critical need for international validation of any resolution. This includes the contentious issue of recognizing territories under Russian control since the onset of the conflict in <strong>February 2022<\/strong>. He specifically pointed to <strong>Crimea<\/strong> and the <strong>Donbas<\/strong> region as essential areas that must be recognized as Russian territories, which he considers vital for moving forward with negotiations.<\/p>\n<h3>Moscow&#8217;s Position on European Security<\/h3>\n<p>In a recent press conference held after his visit to <strong>Kyrgyzstan<\/strong>, Putin responded to Western calls for enhanced security guarantees in Europe. He remarked that Russia is willing to formalize commitments demonstrating that it holds no aggressive intentions towards European nations. This statement comes amid rising tensions as European countries ramp up their defense budgets in response to perceived threats from Moscow.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/1764266950_315_Putins-Two-Demands-Elections-Must-Happen-in-Ukraine-or-Well.JPG\" alt=\"Putin demands lifting martial law in kyiv and calling elections after the signing of a peace agreement in Ukraine (REUTERS\/Stringer)\" class=\"global-image\"\/><\/p>\n<h3>Implications for European Defense<\/h3>\n<p>Putin&#8217;s recent proposals, including a large-scale rearmament effort aimed at bolstering the <strong>Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO)<\/strong>, further complicate the already fraught security landscape in Europe. These actions contrast sharply with the decisions made by various European nations and NATO members to increase their military capabilities in light of ongoing threats from Russia.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>As the situation in Ukraine continues to evolve, Putin&#8217;s demands present significant geopolitical challenges. His insistence on military withdrawal and the call for elections strikes at the heart of Ukraine\u2019s sovereignty and future governance, while simultaneously raising questions about regional security and international diplomatic strategies. The coming weeks will be pivotal as discussions unfold, possibly determining the trajectory of both Ukrainian and European stability.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/category\/general\/\" rel=\"dofollow\">General News &#8211; 2<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Putin&#8217;s Demands: Elections in Ukraine and Military Ultimatum Putin&#8217;s Stance on Ending Hostilities Russian President Vladimir Putin has recently declared that the end of ongoing military operations in Ukraine hinges on the full withdrawal of the Ukrainian army from territories currently under Russian control. \u201cIf you do not withdraw, we will expel you by force,\u201d [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":187254,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[37111,198,37278,2011,19406,206,4195,3339,414,21104,228],"class_list":["post-187253","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mazagine","tag-asia-pacific","tag-demands","tag-diplomacy-foreign-policy","tag-elections","tag-expel","tag-force","tag-happen","tag-international","tag-putins","tag-relations","tag-ukraine"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/187253","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=187253"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/187253\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/187254"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=187253"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=187253"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=187253"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
