The European Union will never recognize the Russian-occupied Crimean peninsula as legally Russian, the bloc’s top diplomat Kaja Kallas told Agence France-Presse (AFP) on April 22.
Kallas’ comments come in response to reports that the recognition of Crimea as Russian territory is being considered as part of a U.S.-backed proposal to end the war in Ukraine.
“Crimea is Ukraine,” Kallas told the AFP.
Good so they should recognize Russia as the illegal invader and help Ukraine with personnel and weapons.
I think that the EU, Nato and the Ukraine armed forces would be best served with equipment and intel support, without the addition of foreign troops. If they were stocked to the gills, and well served with intel, then there would be no questions about occupation, despite current morale and troop concerns…
That’s what they’ve been doing for years already…
They’ve sent personnel. Who has?
The EU
I think he meant soldiers.
Yeah they are sending training staff and other logistics but no EU soldier on the field as of yet as this could be interpreted as a declaration of war.
