The offered discounts of the lands of Ukraine are Putin’s trap, says the best EU diplomat

The best diplomat of the European Union (EU) warned not to insist Ukraine to abandon the territories in Russia as part of a future peace deal.

In their first interview with the United Kingdom, since EU leaders joined the peace talks of Donald Trump’s White House with Ukraine, Kaja Kalas told the BBC program today that leaving Russia to preserve the Ukrainian territories is “a trap in which Putin wants to enter.

The Donbass region in Eastern Ukraine has long been contested by Russia, with military aggression forcing 1.5 million Ukrainians to run In the last decade.

Ukraine constantly rejects the Kremlin Donbass’s retreat in exchange for peace, although Trump emphasized the need for “exchanging territories”.

Kalas – which is placed in the Kremlin’s “Request List” – also talks long about “reliable and healthy” security guarantees for Ukraine.

She acknowledged that at this stage there are not many “specific steps” for deterrent in negotiations.

“The strongest security guarantee is a strong army of Ukraine,” she said, outlining the importance of setting guarantees that “not just on paper.”

She said it depends on the member states of “Coalition of desire” To determine exactly what they could contribute and that it is not yet clear what capacity these forces will work.

Leaders from key EU countries, including France, Germany, Italy and Finland, joined the Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelenski for talks in the White House last week, days after Trump hosted Russian President Vladimir Putin at Alaska Military Base.

At the Alaska summit, Callas said Putin received “everything he wanted” and that would affect his interest in negotiating a peaceful deal.

“He received such a greeting and wanted no sanctions to be introduced, which he also achieved.

“Putin just laughs, doesn’t stop the murder, but he increases the murder,” Kalas said. “We forget that Russia has not made any concession.”

She added that the EU had collected the 19th package of sanctions to put pressure on the Russian leader in more discussions.

In the meantime, Trump on Thursday set a two -week deadline to evaluate peace talks between Russia and Ukraine.

“I would say within two weeks that we will find out in one way or another,” he said in a telephone interview with Todd Starnes, hosting the right media outcome of Newsmax.

“Then we will have to deal with different,” Trump said.

But Zelenski questioned Putin, showing a desire to meet him.

In comments published to reporters on Thursday, reported the Agance France-Presse news agency, Zelenski accused Russia of avoiding the “need” to hold a meeting between the leaders of both countries.

“The current signals from Russia are honest, obscene. They are trying to avoid the need to meet. They do not want to end this war.”

He also puts pressure on Western allies, saying that Ukraine would like to “understand the security architecture of security within seven to 10 days.”

“We need to understand which country will be ready to do this at any time,” he added.

Zelenski criticized Russia’s significant air attack at the beginning of Thursday, saying that he was behaving as if there was no global effort to stop war.

Eleven different places in Ukraine were struck, killed at least one and wounded more than a dozen in the western city of Lviv near the Polish border.

A number of European leaders have echoed the EU and Ukrainian views on Putin’s reluctance to engage in a peaceful deal.

Finnish President Alexander Stub said Putin was “rarely trusted” and that he was skeptical about the fact that Putin eventually agrees at a bilateral meeting with Zelenski.

French President Emmanuel Macron called the Russian leader, “Predator, and Heat on our threshold” and expressed the “most doubt” that he would be ready to work for peace.

Both leaders attended peace talks at the White House on Monday.

Zelenski said he was ready to meet Putin “in any format” but In front of reporters on Thursday, there is still no sign from Moscow that they “really intend to participate in significant negotiations.”
