Italy's Meloni Warns Europe Risks Irrelevance in Ukraine Peace Talks
Meloni says Europe needs one voice in Ukraine peace talks as competing diplomatic efforts weaken the bloc’s credibility, and 37 states meet in the Coalition of the Willing.
- On Thursday, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni wrote to President Antonio Costa urging the European bloc to appoint a single representative empowered to speak on its behalf in Ukraine peace negotiations.
- Meloni criticized the proliferation of fragmented negotiating groups, such as the Coalition of the Willing and the Berlin format, arguing competing initiatives make Europe appear to proceed in 'random order'.
- The letter cited uncoordinated diplomatic actions, including a Miami meeting involving national security advisers and a phone call between leaders of Finland and Norway and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
- While declining a negotiating role for herself or Italy, Meloni demanded European leaders establish a clear mandate and select a single representative to represent the bloc in future peace talks.
- Meloni requested the issue be discussed at the informal European Council in Dublin next week, as crucial Ukrainian and Russian negotiations mediated by U.S. officials are scheduled for Nov 10 and 11 in Abu Dhabi.
