Kaja Kallas, the EU’s high representative on foreign affairs, cautions against urging Zelenskyy into peace negotiations while Russia shows no willingness to end the war. She stresses the importance of upholding security guarantees promised to Ukraine and highlights the need for continued support to prevent a prolonged conflict.
Western capitals should stop suggesting peace talks to Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy and instead ensure their promises of security guarantees to Kyiv are not “empty”, the EU’s chief diplomat has warned. Kaja Kallas, the EU’s high representative on foreign affairs, said it was pointless pressuring Zelenskyy to consider peace talks when Russia n President Vladimir Putin showed no desire to stop the war.
” Zelenskyy will meet the EU’s 27 leaders on Thursday for more talks on the future of the war in light of Trump’s election and Europe’s struggles to maintain defence supplies to Ukraine amid production constraints and fiscal concerns across the bloc’s major economies. EU leaders are set to agree a statement on Thursday vowing to support Ukraine “for as long as it takes and as intensely as needed. Russia must not prevail,” according to a draft agreed by their negotiators seen by the FT.
