All of these should be part of "fundamental international agreements," and all Western sanctions against Russia should be lifted, Putin said.
The Kremlin has said before that Kyiv should recognize its territorial gains and drop its bid to join NATO.
"What Putin demands is to give them a part of our territories, those occupied and not occupied, talking about several regions of our country," he said.
Putin insisted that Kyiv should withdraw from all four annexed regions entirely and essentially cede them to Moscow within their administrative borders.
Putin went further Friday and claimed his troops never intended to storm Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, even though they approached the city.
Also Friday, Russia returned to Ukraine the bodies of 254 of its soldiers, Kyiv said.
