Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky: Europe must be involved in negotiations with Russia

The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, stated that Europe must be actively involved in negotiations with Russia, within the framework of American mediation, emphasizing the need for a strong voice and clear representation. This statement was made in a post on Telegram, following a phone conversation with the President of the European Council, Antonio Costa.

Although the European Union provides most of the aid for Ukraine, it has been excluded from negotiations with Russia, which are at an impasse. While some member states see an opportunity to intensify their involvement, others, such as Estonia, oppose this idea. Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna stated that it is not the time for negotiations, but to exert pressure on Russia, emphasizing that Russia is weakened and that discussions are not appropriate in this context.
