As a follow-up, are new international maritime laws for the Black Sea part of Zelensky's peace plan, or part of any future proposals, e.g., that it be a de-militarized zone, civilian traffic only?
Getting Russia's fleet out of the Black Sea would be excellent for greater stability and security for all Democratic countries. I guess some of the ways Ukraine is keeping Russia's fleet at bay might need to be kept secret, but what can be shared? Are you using aerial drones? Aquatic drones? Friendly countries letting you use their space as additional places to attack from? Electronic interference with ships' navigational systems? Will the F-16s be used against them?
