Ukraine negotiations will “take months if not years,” says military expert Brieger

There will be no quick ceasefire or even peace in Ukraine, said Robert Brieger, the highest general of the EU, in the Ö1-Lunchtime-Interview on Saturday. In the case of concrete negotiations, “with months, if not to be expected,” he said. Politically, he judged the initiatives of US President Donald Trump. On the one hand, they are “an effort to end the war”, on the other hand, Russian President Vladimir Putin is “upgraded”.
