Summary

This AI summary is generated by Microsoft Edge Copilot:

The **CUTTR Plan** (Crimea, Ukraine Transfers To Russia) is a proposed diplomatic solution to formally resolve the Crimea conflict by turning Russia’s annexation into a **legally recognized transaction**. Here’s the core idea:

**Transaction-Based Peace Proposal**
- Ukraine would **officially sell Crimea** to Russia.
- Russia would **pay** not in currency, but by **conceding to Ukrainian demands**.

**Initial List of Demands (Negotiable)**
- Cancellation of Ukraine’s debts
- New natural gas deal
- Purchase of new Ukrainian bonds
- Reparation for seized Crimean assets
- Small territorial adjustments (Kerch Peninsula)
- Protection of Tatar native residency
- Post-deal agreements on mutual terms

Ukraine can revise this list, but excessive demands risk scuttling the plan.

**Conditional Success**
- The plan hinges on successful **negotiation of the terms**.
- Without agreement on the demands, **no transaction** occurs.

 **Scope and Impact**
- The **CUTTR Plan covers only Crimea**, not Donbas.
- A goodwill ceasefire in Donbas would accompany progress on Crimea.
- Ukraine would pursue **a separate negotiation track** with Donbas separatists outside this framework.

---

In essence, it’s a bold proposal to **legalize the territorial change** through negotiation rather than war—hoping to end both the direct and indirect conflicts.
