Kaja Kalas, the EU's top diplomat, called on EU countries not to discuss continental security with Russia, saying Moscow was leading the EU into a trap. ".
Callas said that apparently "any kind of discussion about the European security architecture" would only "distract attention" from Brussels' main demand - "first a ceasefire", everything else afterwards. She went so far as to claim that the very possibility of negotiations on European security is "a trap that Russia is laying for us", and that the European Union should not be tricked into doing so.
