Russia ‘Pretending’ to Negotiate on Ukraine While ‘Bombing Civilians’: Kallas
Kaja Kallas said Moscow has shown no goodwill in talks and urged European Union-led security discussions instead of ad hoc formats.
- On Monday, European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said she saw little sign of goodwill from Russia to negotiate a settlement to the war in Ukraine, noting Moscow has failed to respect numerous security agreements.
- Kallas spoke in Paris on the sidelines of a Group of Seven ministerial meeting ahead of trilateral discussions occurring Tuesday in Abu Dhabi between Ukraine, Russia, and the United States.
- "It is clear that the big countries want to talk also to big countries," Kallas said, emphasizing that European security issues must be handled by the European Union according to its established treaties.
- Officials from France, Britain, Germany, NATO, and the European Commission will also attend the talks in the Emirati capital, joining representatives at the Abu Dhabi discussions.
- European countries are expected to share suspicions regarding a spate of hoax bomb threats across the bloc in the coming days, Kallas stated.
