Top lawmaker insists Europe should join Ukraine peace talks
Europe must be involved in Ukraine peace talks given its investment in the crisis, Christophe Gomart, France’s former head of Military Intelligence told Euronews in an exclusive interview.
Gomart is vice-chair of the European Parliament’s committee of security and defence.
The Munich Security Conference begins today amid an exceptionally tense geopolitical climate. Following former US President Donald Trump’s announcement of his intention to engage in bilateral peace negotiations with Russian President Vladimir Putin to end the war in Ukraine, European leaders are grappling with significant concerns. On one hand, they are excluded from the peace talks; on the other, they may be expected to assume responsibility for any resulting settlement.
According to Gomart, Europe must be included in the negotiations, given that the war is taking place on European soil and the EU has already made substantial contributions.
