EU’s Kallas warns against Ukraine land concessions, calls territorial demands ‘Russian playbook’

-

PARIS, March ‌26 (Reuters) - The European Unions ​is worried about Ukraine being pressured by ⁠the United States into ceding territory in negotiations with Russia, the ​EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas ‌said on Thursday.

"This is clearly a wrong approach. It is, of course, the ⁠Russian playbook of negotiations, ⁠that they are demanding something that has never been theirs, and that's why we are also ‌flagging that this is the trap ⁠that we should ‌not walk into," Kallas ​said on the sidelines of a G7 meeting in France.

Ukrainian President ‌Volodymyr Zelenskiy told ​Reuters that the ⁠U.S. had been linking its ‌offer for ⁠security guarantees on the condition that Kyiv would cede the eastern region ​of Donbas ‌to Moscow.
