According to politicians such as the EU's chief diplomat Kaja Kallas, the President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen, and the President of the UN General Assembly Annalena Baerbock, Europe is not participating in the negotiations to resolve the Ukrainian crisis.

Axar.az reports that this was stated by Leonid Slutsky, the head of the Russian State Duma's International Relations Committee.

He noted that if EU countries do not understand the importance of dialogue with Russia, they will continue to remain on the sidelines:

"It is precisely because of people like Kallas, Baerbock, Leyen, Borrell, and other Biden henchmen that the EU is no longer at the negotiating table to resolve the continent's biggest security crisis, but has been thrown to the sidelines of history. It will remain there until the EU accepts reality and the need for a constructive dialogue with Russia."
