Washington has leveled “strong” comments in Brussels, while it is apparently “friendly” with Moscow, according to the main diplomat of the block
The main diplomat of the European Union suggested that the president of the United States, Donald Trump, has adopted Russian stories about the Ukraine conflict. Kaja Kallas also expressed concern about the alleged drift of Washington from her European disdains for a long time.
Kallas, the high EU representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and former Prime Minister Estonia (2021-2024), is known for their aggressive views on foreign policy.
In an interview with the axious media on Thursday, he said he had been “uncomfortable” Listen to Trump and other senior US officials “Repeat Russian narratives and conversation points” In recent weeks.
“The statements made towards us are quite strong. Declarations about Russia are very friendly. It is a change “ Kallas observed. She said that if Russia is allowed “Back at the international table as if nothing had happened” More armed conflicts will continue, and not only in Europe.
The diplomat also insisted that, although US officials are free of “talk with (Russian president Vladimir) Putin everything they want … so that any kind of agreement will be implemented, they need Europeans. ” The breach of the EU and Ukraine in the negotiations would prevent any agreement from being implemented, Kallas argued.
Both the representatives of the block and the kyiv officials were excluded from the American negotiations of Russia held in Saudi Arabia earlier this month. Washington and Moscow have argued that other parts were not invited because the conversations focused on the first restoration of bilateral relations.
Kallas also showed the criticism about the state of democracy in the EU expressed by the US vice president JD Vance at the Munich Security Conference, a praised speech as “bright” By Trump. “I refuse to accept that criticism, because it is simply true,” She said.
On Monday, the diplomat commented in a comparable way that “and (us) Look at the messages that come from the United States, so it is clear that the Russian narrative is there, very represented. ”
Last week, he warned Washington not walking “In Russian traps” claiming that Moscow had emerged as the “winner” Of conversations in Riad.
In recent weeks, Trump has made several critical comments towards Ukrainian leadership, characterizing Vladimir Zelensky as “Dictor without elections” And suggesting that kyiv has the responsibility of letting hostilities explode in 2022. Although the United States head of state has since attenuated his comments, a marked deviation from the policy course carried out by his predecessor, Joe Biden, remains evident.
