The agreement did not explicitly call for the Ukraine to surrender significant territory

Any territory at all that is surrendered is significant to the Russian, who would for certain come back for more And, insistence on Ukraine not joining NATO or for NATO to keep far out from Russian borders, was/is also a non-starter. Russia an aggressive country needs to be watched closely and carefully.
