Good try, but there is no Authority principle delineated other than a bilaterally (or multilaterally) signed contract.
Better to take much of this and create a sovereign state without conditions. Which I doubt RF will now accept. The West cannot be trusted to honour any agreement.
Unconditional surrender by Ukraine is best. Then West Ukraine joins with the West somehow and the rest with Russia. No more iffy borderland buffer zone.
After Bucha and Mariupol, unconditional surrender just ain't on the table, see https://streamfortyseven.substack.com/p/bucha for details. Ukraine has something which Russia wants - fossil fuel and mineral resources. Those resources have to be extracted, processed, and transported - and Ukraine can piss in Russia's cornflakes at any point in that process. Ukraine wants to rebuild and stop the slaughter - as does Russia as to the last point. So each side wants something the other can do - Russia refrains from committing war, and Ukraine lets Russia profit from the energy resources - and the enforcement of the contract is obvious. Peace is to the mutual advantage of both parties. Russia can continue onwards with the conflict, and eventually have its lunch eaten by China in its Far East and Siberian regions, and then they end up with no resources which can be extracted or sold, and they're totally screwed.
I reserve judgment on Bucha not knowing who did what to whose bodies, first living then dead (might be two different perps), whilst observing that April 2022 is a now a long time ago and things may have changed.
That said, some things haven't, such as Jewish Oligarch Abramovich's influence within both sides of the seeming conflict.
Your point is that if Ukraine abandons the West and lets Russia get the mineral and other spoils, then they can do a deal, cutting out the neocon-CIA led faction (driven by the same or different oligarchs no doubt).
Or maybe this entire operation is to clear out the native population and then the oligarchs get the resources. (Which some say is happening in Valencia and North Carolina too).
In other words, 'Russia' and 'Ukraine' may be an oversimplification of the parties involved. That is usually the case in most conflicts, no?
Ukraine is just plain weird. They still have neo-Nazis, to be sure, with the (putatively former) neo-Nazi Azov Bataillion - but, weirdly enough, it started out as the private army of Ihor Kolomoiskiy which he used to acquire businesses - at gunpoint if the former owners wouldn't accept Kolomoiskiy's ridiculous lowball offers - and Kolomoiskiy is a Jew. Who funded and armed neo-Nazis wearing the Sonnenrad as part of their insignia. So go figure. On the Russian side, there's RuSich - they're as high-quality troops as Azov, by the way, part of the only really competent troops remaining in the Russian Army, after Ukraine's Greatest General, Gerasimov, managed to kill off most of the Russian Army's elite formations, with Olympic-grade exhibitions of incompetence and stupidity. And RuSich, unlike Azov, don't have Jewish backers, at least that I know of - and they have a modified Sonnenrad as their insignia...
Putin has managed to kill off lots of his non-ethnic-Russian population - ethnic Russians have been largely spared - and that kind of looks like eugenics on Putin's part. As for Ukraine, many of their troops are over 30 years old, some up in their 50s and 60s, people who grew up in the Ukrainian SSR - so they might have more of an interest in fighting the Russians than the younger generation. The hammer-and-sickle red flags seen on Russian armor might have a more galvanizing effect on them. The younger people who do want to fight come from the areas like Kharkiv which were invaded then occupied then changed hands. A lot of them are anarchists and Antifa, so there's that, too.
As for Bucha, it was Chechens and Buryats who were the major killers there, not ethnic Russians. Right now - and for a while - Putin is having trouble with Kadyrov - who if he's not careful may end up like Prigozhin. The Chechens are not a European people...
And it looks like Putin is trying to get rid of the people and the housing stock in Ukraine - and I'm sure he'd do it for the rest of the country and maybe Moldova, too - robotic mining doesn't take a lot of human labor. And maybe Putin is trying to accomplish what Stalin failed to do in the early 1930s in the Holodomor.
And then there's that Gazprom pipeline, Putin pays Zelenskyy $1 billion per year for the transit rights, and Putin finances a lot of his war spending from the proceeds of that fossil fuel being sold on to Europe - and the pipeline stretches all the way across Ukraine from Sumy to the Polish border - and it's never been hit once... Odd, that.
Thank you. Your comment illustrates how odd it all is indeed. There are layers within layers, so many that even the main actors don't know them all. It's why I've barely followed the Ukraine story - too many variables, known and unknown.
That said, knowing that most Ukraine Nazi groups are sponsored by Jewish oligarchs and their cotribal neocons in the US & Europe meant I've never believed their cover which I presume is designed to help Putin get domestic support for the SMO.
If nothing else, the neocons want war, small or large, anything that keeps funds flowing into the MIC. Quite possibly they are the ideological tail wagged by MIC bankster dog.
In theory, DOGE run by two highly intelligent next gen leaders will put a dent in all this (whilst at least temporarily sidelining most traditional senior cabinet roles like SoS etc.
Meanwhile apparently Trump & Putin already worked out a deal acc to Orban.

Okay (he says quizzically)...
