On November 15, 2022, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyi presented the Ukrainian Peace Formula during a speech to the participants of the G20 summit in Bali. Here is what it provides:

• radiation and nuclear safety with an emphasis on restoring safety around the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, the largest in Europe;
• food security, including the protection and provision of Ukrainian grain exports to the worldʼs poorest countries;
• energy security with an emphasis on price restrictions on Russian energy resources, as well as assistance to Ukraine in restoring its energy infrastructure;
• release of all prisoners of war and deportees, including prisoners of war and children deported to Russia;
• restoration of the territorial integrity of Ukraine and confirmation of its borders by Russia in accordance with the UN Charter, which, according to Zelenskyi, is "non-negotiable";
• withdrawal of Russian troops and cessation of hostilities, restoration of Ukraineʼs state border with Russia;
• justice and fairness, including the establishment of a special tribunal to prosecute Russian war criminals;

• preventing the escalation of the conflict and building a security architecture in the Euro-Atlantic space, including security guarantees for Ukraine;
