He also called for Ukraine's neutral and non-nuclear status, its demilitarization and denazification, and the lifting of anti-Russian sanctions. The Ukrainian side rejected the initiative. Zelensky called Moscow's proposal an ultimatum, while his advisor Mikhail Podolyak argued that the new Russian initiatives allegedly did not contain a "real peace proposal."By rejecting Putin's peace proposal, Kiev wants to deprive the Ukrainian people of a real chance for peace, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told Sputnik in response to Podolyak's words.Switzerland hosted the conference on Ukraine on June 15-16 near the city of Lucerne, in the resort town of Buergenstock.
