"textContent": "Russia's Security Council allegedly prepared a plan for what sources described as the \"greatest deal” with the United States ahead of the Alaska summit in August 2025, The Economist reported. According to the publication, the proposal centered on lifting sanctions in exchange for economic and strategic concessions.\nThe article cited statements attributed to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who, referencing Ukrainian intelligence, claimed that representatives of the United States received promises of agreements totaling 12 trillion dollars. Neither Moscow nor Washington has officially confirmed the existence of such a plan.\nFinancial Proposals and Arctic Interests\n\nAccording to the report, the first block of proposals focused on financial arrangements. Russia would allow American companies to repurchase assets previously transferred to local management, estimated at roughly 60 billion dollars, without a buyback option. Observers interpreted this measure as a potential pathway for restoring US business access to parts of the Russian economy.",
