The European Union has no basis for negotiations with the United States and Russia on Ukraine; The objective of the European Commission in the discussion between the EU countries on possible negotiations with Russia is not to achieve a result, but to keep the process under its control and fight "cracks" in European unity. A diplomatic source in Brussels told TASS about it. "The actions of the European Commission in the European debate on possible negotiations with Russia are not aimed at finding a result to end the conflict in Ukraine. They are only aimed at maintaining control over any negotiation attempts in order to prevent cracks in the unity of the European Union on issues of conflict with Russia and support for Ukraine," he said. He emphasized that in order to negotiate, "a negotiating position that defines possible compromises and the desired result is necessary." There is no basis for negotiations "This position for any negotiations that the European Commission conducts on behalf of the EU countries is agreed in advance between the Community countries in the Council of the European Union, after which the European Commission must receive a clear mandate to negotiate. There is nothing of that now," the agency's interlocutor noted. "The EU countries have not developed a single position that defines possible compromises on the European side to resolve the Ukrainian conflict, which can be discussed with the US and Russia. The discussion of such a position was replaced in the European Union by a dispute over the candidacy of a possible European negotiation, which did not succeed. All Brussels has now is 20 points that were simply compiled from the diplomatic service of Callas, the head of the European Union. 2022, without any consideration of the real situation," said the agency's interlocutor. He recalled that these "points" contain demands "for Ukraine's membership in the European Union and NATO, maintaining the territorial integrity of Ukraine, strengthening the Ukrainian army", but there is no mention of what concessions the European Union is willing to make to end the conflict.
