Ukraine Must Be Part of Europe’s Security Architecture, EU Foreign Policy Chief Says
Kaja Kallas said any peace deal must include the European Union as Washington pursues broader talks with Russia and Ukraine.
- On Friday, European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas declared in Warsaw that Ukraine must be fully integrated into Europe's security architecture, asserting that Russian President Vladimir Putin has no veto over regional security matters.
- These comments arrived after President Donald Trump predicted a "very big" deal involving all of Europe, while his envoy Jared Kushner stated Washington is working on a "broader European security architecture" ahead of Abu Dhabi talks.
- Representatives from Washington met officials from NATO and the EU in Brussels for two days of talks this week, as European leaders pushed back against any U.S. efforts to rewrite the continent's security framework.
- Kallas stressed there is "no way around the EU" on security guarantees, sanctions, and reconstruction, adding that any peace deal will "require the EU to be part of it."
- Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski and Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga echoed these concerns, insisting that Moscow cannot serve as a security guarantor and that Europe must protect itself against Russia rather than negotiate spheres of influence.
