Ukraine, Tajani “Delicate moment, prudence and steady nerves needed”

ROME (ITALPRESS) – “It’s a very tense moment, which is why we need to keep our nerves, react very calmly and see what the evolution will be after this conversation that certainly did not go well.” Vice-Premier and Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani told Zapping on Radio Uno, commenting on the clash at the White House between the presidents of the U.S. and Ukraine Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky. “Let’s see how the situation develops also of the eventual negotiation that there will have to be between the U.S., Russia, Ukraine that there will have to be, as well as Europe, which must be united and speak with one voice. The moment is delicate, we have to be very cautious, I am convinced that we always resolve the relationship between the U.S. and Europe, we need steady nerves and prudence,” he added. “We need a just peace, but it’s all very difficult, we knew it from the beginning, it’s too early to say when peace will come, there are too many variables,” stressed the vice-premier, who added, “Trump also told the Russians that they have to make concessions. The negotiations have not started yet, we are at the prodromes. You cannot negotiate without Ukraine and without Europe, you have to be very cautious and moderate, careful what you say. We have to be vigilant about the situation, and the Europeans have to be united, leaps forward by individual states are not needed.”
