#4 Putin might be forgiven for wanting to know who will guarantee his security.

That would be Mr Geography. After getting punked by the Minsk Agreements, which Frau Merkel admitted were just a delaying tactic, the Russians are going to want something more defensible than words on paper or a line on a map.

Unfortunately for Ukraine, the two best spots are the narrow region over by Poland in the west, and the Dnipr river. An alternative would be a completely demilitarized Ukraine, a situation that seems unlikely.
