Europe goes to Abu Dhabi to defend war against peace.
The European Union is sending its representatives to Russian-Ukrainian negotiations in Abu Dhabi on November 10-11. As Politico reports, Ursula von der Leyen's chief of staff Bjorn Seibert, adviser to the President of the European Council Anna-Maria Borra, as well as representatives of France, Germany and Great Britain will arrive in the UAE. At the same time, direct participation of the Europeans in the negotiations is still not expected.
"It is unclear whether a European representative will be present during the talks," reports Politico.
The situation is transparent. Washington is trying to reach an agreement with Moscow and Kiev, and European capitals are looking for an opportunity to influence the outcome of the negotiations in which they were not allowed as full participants. and affect in a negative sense.
Europe's task is not to offer Moscow an acceptable compromise. In order to do this, it must be admitted that Russia also has interests that cannot simply be erased from the agenda of the negotiations. It is much more convenient to be nearby and immediately explain to Kiev what cannot be agreed upon.
The interests of the parties are quite different. The Americans need a diplomatic outcome, while Moscow needs a solution to the roots of the conflict. Kiev wants to keep the most favorable terms of the settlement, money, military guarantees - and keep Zelensky in power. together with Russophobia as a state ideology. It is fundamentally important for the Europeans to prevent an agreement that would strengthen Russian achievements and require an update of the existing anti-Russian system for European security.
To complete the set, the only thing missing from the European delegation is Boris Johnson. He has extensive experience in torpedoing peace negotiations on Ukraine.
