Italy regrets the ineffective talks with Vladimir Putin
Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi on Sunday lamented the apparent ineffectiveness of talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin, who did nothing to prevent the atrocity from continuing in Ukraine.
I’m starting to believe those who say: “it’s no use talking to him, you’re wasting time” said Mr. Draghi in a daily interview The Corriere della Sera published on Sunday.
I am always defensive [Emmanuel] We keep saying that Macron as the current president of European Union EU , he was right to try all possible means of conversation. But I feel the horrors of the war, with its killing, in what they did to children and women, were completely independent of statements and phone calls. between the Kremlin and foreign powers, he added.
So far, the goal of [Vladimir] Putin is not the search for peace, but the attempt to destroy the Ukrainian resistance, to seize the country and hand it over to a friendly government. continued Mr. Draghi, who reiterated his support for Ukraine.
The head of the Italian government confessed that he thought, at the beginning of the battle, that a quick victory of Russia is likely . He wanted to greet ukrainian heroic resistance .
” What awaits us is a war of resistance, protracted violence with destruction that will continue. There is no indication that the Ukrainians could accept Russia’s occupation. “
– A quote from Mario Draghi, head of the Italian government
Mr. Draghi also believes that the delivery of weapons to Ukrainian citizens is more necessary than ever.
Penalties were important to weaken the aggressor, but they failed to deter the troops in the short term. To do this, we must directly help the Ukrainians, and that is what we do. Failure to do so will tell them: surrender, accept slavery and submission – a message contrary to our European values of solidarity he said.
Italy will reopen its embassy in kyiv on Monday, following in France’s footsteps.
Macron was invited to Ukraine
President Emmanuel Macron’s refusal to call Russia’s military intervention genocide prompted Volodymyr Zelensky to invite his French counterpart in Ukraine to see for himself.
The Ukrainian president found Mr. Macron’s position very painful. The two men had a chance to talk about it.
I think he wants to get Russia to engage in a dialogue Mr. Zelensky explained in an interview with CNN.
” I told him I wanted him to understand that this was not war, that this was nothing but genocide. I invited him to come when the opportunity arose […] He will come, he will see and I am sure he will understand. “
– A quote from Volodymyr Zelensky, about his interview with Emmanuel Macron
In the midst of his re -election campaign, Mr. Macron explained on Thursday that the word genocide should, in his opinion, be employed by lawyers, not by politicians at to enter verbal escalation did not help Ukraine.
Joe Biden did not hesitate for his part to provoke the genocide of Ukrainian citizens by the Russians. Mr Zelensky also invited the US President to visit Ukraine.
I think he will come, but the decision is up to him. Of course, it depends on the security situation, he said. But he is the leader of the United States and, for that, he must go and see.
We are happy to see this in our country. This will be an important message of support for us added the head of Ukrainian diplomacy Dmytro Kouleba, in an interview with the American channel CBS.
According to him, a meeting between President Biden and Zelensky could also pave the way for further U.S. arms transfers to Ukraine and for discussions on a possible political settlement of this conflict .
The US government is considering sending an envoy to kyiv, but the White House has so far ruled out a high-risk trip by the president himself.
