The spokesperson for the European Union, Paula Pinho, stated that the resumption of dialogue with Russian President Vladimir Putin, recently mentioned by French President Emmanuel Macron and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, is not currently on the agenda. When asked about this possibility, Pinho responded that "we are not there yet," emphasizing that discussions with the Kremlin leader cannot be resumed immediately. However, she expressed hope that, at some point, there will be discussions that will contribute to achieving peace in Ukraine. This position reflects a continued caution in EU-Russia relations in the context of the conflict in Ukraine.
