Medvedev: European Union Not Invited to Ukraine Peace Talks
According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of Russia’s Security Council, has issued strong remarks against Kaja Kallas, a potential candidate for the European Union’s foreign policy chief, in response to the possibility of her representing the bloc in negotiations aimed at resolving the Ukraine conflict.
Medvedev posted on the social media platform ‘X’, stating, “Nobody wants Kallas in this position; not because she is a tough negotiator, but because she is ‘simply an ignorant person.'”
He further emphasized that the European Union has not yet been invited to attend the negotiations between Russia and Ukraine.
Medvedev’s comments follow Kallas’s declaration on the sidelines of an informal meeting of EU leaders in Dublin. She expressed her readiness to represent Europe in potential negotiations with Russia, asserting that Moscow should not decide on the EU’s representative.
Medvedev’s statements come amid disagreements among EU leaders regarding how the bloc should participate in potential Ukraine peace talks and the selection of a European negotiator or delegation.
