Shortly after Russia invaded Ukraine, negotiators from both sides drafted a peace treaty. The warring parties negotiated until April 15, 2022. The mediator was Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Die Welt journalists obtained a copy of this 17-page document.
Under the draft agreement, Kiev and Moscow largely agreed on the terms for ending the war. However, several points remained open. They were supposed to be negotiated in person between Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky in a meeting that never took place. After the promising summit in Istanbul, Moscow made other demands that Kiev did not agree to.
Polish Ambassador to China on peace negotiations
Jacob Komoch spoke on this matter. The politician was head of the International Policy Office of the Chancellery of the President of the Republic of Poland from 2021 to 2023, and since 2023 he has been Poland's ambassador to Beijing.
“This deluge of texts in the Western media about peace approaching in 2022 is very disturbing. This is a narrative I have been hearing for several months. The Russians are spreading the word that Zelensky is to blame because he blocked talks with Russia. I recommend caution,” Komuch wrote on the X website. Email.
Komuch said that he recently spoke “with two senior representatives of the Ukrainian authorities, and I am still friends with them and I remember them from those conversations. They both talk about deception, and one of them did it very frankly.”

The diplomat confirms that recently a narrative has increasingly appeared in China that the agreement was not reached due to Volodymyr Zelensky's mistake. “It came to light even more because the Russians have been spreading this narrative in China for a long time: peace was close, but Zelensky blocked talks with us. The same signals about similar manipulation by the Russians are coming from at least two others.” Large countries outside the European Union,” claims former aide to President Andrzej Duda.
Komoch notes that during the negotiations, Poland was informed of its progress. “During the negotiation process, which from the beginning looked like a Russian demonstrator (if not a trap), Ukraine informed Poland of the status of the talks. Moreover, we accompanied every Ukrainian delegation passing through our country,” he wrote. He attached a document from that period to prove his claims.
Draft document of Ukraine's negotiations with Russia
“I also wonder about the possibility of making this operation 'secret' and turning its 'discovery' into a big scoop. In 2022, no one hid the fact that Russia and Ukraine were negotiating. I spoke about it publicly at the time.” It is possible that Podolak tweeted about it,” concluded Jacob Komuch’s analysis.
What will be in the peace agreement?
The agreement included, among other things, the following: To the extent that Kiev will abandon its efforts to join NATO and will refrain from organizing military exercises with the participation of foreign forces and from participating in any armed conflicts.
