Peace getting closer?
The President of the European Council, Antonio Costa, announced that the EU is preparing for possible peace talks with Russian leader Vladimir Putin. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky approved this plan, the Financial Times reported on Thursday.
The leaders of EU countries are considering entering into peace negotiations with Putin because the EU countries are increasingly frustrated with the talks conducted by the administration of US President Donald Trump on this matter, the British daily explained on its website.
Costa said he was consulting with EU leaders looking for “the best way to organize and understand what is needed in practice to talk to Russia when the time is right.” He also assured that such a plan has the support of Kiev.
