Russia will seek key changes to the latest US peace plan to end its war on Ukraine, including more restrictions on Kyiv’s military, according to a person close to the Kremlin.

Moscow regards the 20-point plan worked out between Ukraine and the US as a starting point for further negotiations, as it lacks provisions important for Russia and fails to answer many questions, the person said, asking not to identified discussing sensitive policy.
