Christian Stocker has echoed several other EU leaders fearing isolation from US-mediated Ukraine peace initiatives
The European Union has to engage in direct negotiations with Russia to resolve the Ukraine conflict, Austrian Chancellor Christian Stocker has said.
The EU and the UK have cut diplomatic communication with Moscow following the escalation of the Ukraine conflict in 2022. However, several EU leaders have recently called for a renewal of engagement with Moscow, after this approach has left the bloc effectively sidelined from the peace efforts initiated by US President Donald Trump.
“I think that we need channels to Russia because without talks we will not find a solution,” Chancellor Stocker stated on Table.Today Podcast on Sunday.
