Sorry, but no. The demands and even the Minsk agreements were completely incompatible with Ukrainian sovereignty. It would have been easier to demand Ukraine recognize LDNR and Crimea, than to implement Misk 2 in its form.
I can easily lay blame on Germany for being so nindmumbigly stupid with forcing Minsk 2 on Ukraine. You've seen how well Russia played Merkel, when Ukranian president snapped a pencil.
And finally - there was no goal of letting Ukraine make its own decisions on Russian side. This war was inevitable, since western powers refused to provide proper defensive capabilities to Ukraine - specially AA.
