US criticizes Russia's unrealistic demands in Ukraine peace talks, urging more reasonable terms for peace.

The US criticizes Russia for demanding too much in Ukraine peace talks, calling its demands for security guarantees and autonomy for separatist regions unrealistic. While the US does not see Russia's intentions as entirely destructive, it urges more reasonable demands to facilitate a peaceful resolution. JD Vance and US Vice President Biden have echoed similar concerns, suggesting Russia's terms are too high for a settlement.
