Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever (Flemish nationalist N-VA) says that the European Union must negotiate with Russian President Vladmimir Putin to bring the war in Ukraine to an end and normalise relations with the Russian Federation. The premier was speaking with the Francophone financial paper L'Echo. According to De Wever, Europe will not succeed in bringing Russia to its knees, neither militarily nor through economic sanctions. ‘What is the point of continuing the war if there is no clear victory in sight?’
Anyone can call to negotiation as much as they want, the reality is that Russia does not negotiate in good faith.
It only intensifies bombing of Ukrainian cities, and sending “signals” by striking civilian infrastructure exactly during the negotiations.
If politician does not see it, he is either stupid or affiliated with Russia and acting in its interest.
