The European Union does not trust that the president of the United States, , can end the war in Ukraine. For this reason, the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs, Kaja Kallas, has announced that from Brussels they are working on “a sustainable peace plan.”
Kallas has expressed that the EU is “very grateful” to the diplomatic efforts being carried out by the North American country, but has stressed that “To achieve sustainable peace, everyone at the tableincluding Americans, They must understand that it is necessary for Europeans to agree.
The head of European diplomacy has highlighted that the EUlike the US, too has conditions to end the war in Ukraine. In that sense, Kaja Kallas has expressed that these demands “We should not impose them on the Ukrainians, who have already suffered a lot of pressure, but on the Russians.”
In that list of concessionsthe High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs has mentioned that the obligation for Russia returns thousands of children kidnapped in Ukraine and the limitation of the size of the Russian army when the armed conflict ends.
In this regard, Kaja Kallas has made it clear that “the Ukrainian army is not the problem. It is the Russian army. It is Russian military spending. “If they spend that much on the military, they will have to use it again.”
Warning to the US: putting pressure on the weaker party can lead to a false peace
In relation to the three-way peace negotiations between the US, Ukraine and Russia, the head of European diplomacy has highlighted that It is not a good idea for Trump to put pressure on Ukraine, which is the weaker party and, furthermore, it depends on the United States in military terms to be able to continue defending itself against Russian troops. According to Kallas, That strategy could lead to a quick but false peace.
“Pressuring the weaker party can always give faster results, but it is only a declaration that we have peace. It is not a sustainable peace. It will not be a guarantee for Ukraine or for anyone else that Russia will not attack again,” warned the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs.
