French President Emmanuel Macron sent two advisors, Emmanuel Bonne and Bertrand Buchwalter, to the Kremlin to discuss Europe's involvement in the peace negotiations in Ukraine. They were met with hostility, as Yuri Ushakov, Vladimir Putin's advisor, rejected their proposals and cursed at them. The Kremlin's spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov, stated that Europeans do not wish to contribute to the peace process, suggesting that Europe should accept Russia's demands without presenting its own requests. The peace process in Ukraine has stalled, partly due to the Trump administration's focus on the conflict in Iran, which reduced pressure on Russia and increased the Kremlin's oil revenues. The discussions are in danger, and the future of the negotiations remains uncertain.
