Sikorski stated that Russia has acknowledged the impossibility of negotiating about Ukraine without Europe
Poland's foreign minister Radek Sikorski believes that Moscow effectively acknowledged the need for European countries to participate in talks on ending the war against Ukraine. In his view, Europe has levers of influence on the peace process, notably through military aid to Kyiv and frozen Russian assets.
The occasion for such a statement were the words of Vladimir Putin's adviser Yuri Ushakov. He noted that Russia will have to negotiate with European countries since attempts by the United States to obtain concessions from Ukraine did not yield the desired result.
Sikorski assessed this as evidence that Europe plays an important role in resolving the war. Among the tools of influence of European states he named arms supplies to Ukraine and frozen Russian assets.
According to the publication, the next round of negotiations involving the United States, Russia, and Ukraine could take place in the first half of November. One possible venue under consideration is Abu Dhabi.
