As the destruction worsens, the warring sides are discussing a ceasefire - but both sides are warning of significant differences.
One possibility is Ukraine declaring its neutrality like Sweden or Austria.
And renouncing its ambitions to join NATO as well as promising not to host foreign military bases or weapons.
Will the Ukrainians surrender to the pressure from Moscow?
