No "superhero" found. A delegation assembled.
Europe was looking for a "superhero negotiator" who could stand up to Putin and Trump and achieve a favorable peace agreement for Ukraine and the European Union. But first of all, they had to agree among themselves - and that's where the "superpowers" failed.
According to Politico, the different interests and powers of European capitals, NATO and EU institutions prevented the election of a single representative. Kaja Kalas tried to outmaneuver her rivals and secure the negotiating position, but the plan failed without the support of senior officials. In the end, instead of one person, they decided to send representatives from five countries, the European Commission and the European Council. Do they hope to achieve success through sheer numbers?
