Zelenskyy Calls for Europe to Appoint a Negotiator for Potential Russia Peace Talks
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has urged Europe to select a dedicated negotiator for potential future peace talks with Russia, stressing the need for a strong European presence in such negotiations, though the EU currently lacks an obvious single figurehead for the role. Additionally, Ukraine launched retaliatory strikes against Russia (including targets in Moscow) over the weekend resulting in at least four deaths, while Russia responded overnight with over 500 drones and 20 missiles, prompting Zelenskyy to call on Europe to enhance protective measures; the live blog also covers other European developments like US envoy Jeff Landry’s controversial Greenland visit, Latvia’s government formation talks, and Bulgarian PM Ruman Radev’s trip to Germany.
