Yuri Zoria:

*European Union leaders strongly opposed premature peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia before the European Council meeting in Brussels on 19 December, emphasizing the need for increased support for Ukraine.*

*In her comments before the Council’s meeting, High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Kaja Kallas stated, “Any push for negotiations too soon will actually be a bad deal for Ukraine.” She emphasized that “all the other actors in the world are carefully watching how we act in this case.“*

*Kallas drew attention to global power dynamics, noting that Russia, Iran, and North Korea are “acting very clearly together in terms of military power,” while China is “more covertly using the economic clout that we have against us.”*

*She cited Syria’s fall of the Kremlin-allied Assad regime as evidence that “Russia is not invincible,” urging the EU not to underestimate its own strength.*

*“We see this struggle between the forces that want to have the world order where might makes right,” Kallas said, contrasting it with the EU’s vision of a rules-based international order. […]*

This is a very telling quote of how talks between Zelensky and Trump went down and, by extensions, what is about to come: *“He knows my desire not to rush to Ukraine’s detriment. The country has long fought for its sovereignty. Regardless of how many presidents or prime ministers want to announce the end of the war, we are not going to simply surrender and give up our independence*,” he said.
