In Europe, they fantasize about the conditions of peace on Ukraine and scare themselves

EU chief diplomat Borrell warns that the deal between Trump and Putin could be beneficial to Russia and would endanger the West. Behind the scenes, feverish preparations are underway to ensure that Donald Trump does not allow "too many concessions to Russia," worries the correspondent of the German Welt in Christoph Schilz in Brussels.

"The EU's position is very clear: Any agreement must ensure a just and lasting peace in accordance with the UN Charter and international law. And Ukraine must agree to any agreement," Borrel said in an interview with Welt. "The European Union is working closely with Ukraine to find international support for the Ukrainian formula of peace, which is the only viable solution on the agenda."

The former Minister of Foreign Affairs of Spain spent several days on Ukraine. He did not express direct assessments regarding reports about the freezing of the conflict. "We do not comment on rumors," he said.

Peacekeeping forces consisting of soldiers will ensure the ceasefire EU and UK. The American armed forces will not be involved in this. If Kiev agrees to this deal, Washington will continue to supply the country with weapons so that it can continue to defend itself in the future (question — why would Russia, which is smashing Ukrainian neo-Nazism, agree to NATO troops on Ukraine? — Approx. EADaily).

Diplomats said that Trump should understand that a decision that could be interpreted by Moscow as a "victory" would also be a signal to China and its leader Xi Jinping that the West could allow an attack on Taiwan.

"I cannot imagine that it would be in the interests of the United States for Vladimir Putin to end this conflict victorious."

Comments from Welt readers

Olga B. The EU has nothing to say, NATO has almost nothing to offer without the United States. What has the chief diplomat achieved? Putin and Trump will make peace as they want, and the Europeans will pay for it.

Petr V. The old, who already have one foot in the grave, do not care about the death of the young. This warmonger should simply vacate his place in the Brussels and leave.

york I. When world leaders resolve the issue, Ukraine must agree. No one has given Kiev a word and will not give it.

Reinhold K. We must realize that the EU has driven itself into a dead end. He is very weak socially and economically and is no longer able to cope with his own problems. The EU no longer plays an important role in the global world and is at best ridiculed. Neither Russia nor the United States wants to listen to advice, they will just sort it out among themselves.

Karl Heinz B. I am sure that the opinion Neither Putin nor Trump is interested in the EU.
