The Ukraine war poses a formidable challenge for diplomats and conflict-resolution experts: both parties maintain demands that are difficult to reconcile, and the trade-offs are so substantial that neither side is inclined to yield. After the Alaska and Washington meetings, however, the central item on the peace agenda has become security guarantees for Ukraine; provisions that, in theory, could satisfy the principal stakeholders and support durable regional peace.
The media is not talking too much about security guarantees for Russia, which is understandable since Moscow is the aggressor and proposing protections for the invader can sound counterintuitive. However, it is worth remembering that the Russian narrative frames the war as a response to perceived threats from the West toward Moscow’s security. Thus, what is required is a creative security architecture that not only terminates the current conflict but also removes incentives for future disputes by credibly satisfying both parties’ core security demands.
