Russia offers to halt invasion at current frontline

(Sharecast News) - The Russian president has offered to stop the invasion of Ukraine at the point where the frontline currently stands.

According to the Financial Times, earlier in April, Putin told the US special envoy that Moscow could relinquish its claims to those parts of the four Ukrainian regions that it claims but does not completely control.

The FT also said that European officials briefed on Washington's plans had warned that Moscow would use the "apparent concession" as bait so that Donald Trump accepted Moscow's other demands.
