Let Meloni speak for Europe with Russia, Babiš demands. He also mentioned other names.
Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babiš suggested potential European leaders for peace negotiations with Russia, including Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen. He emphasized the importance of discussing specific names at the upcoming EU summit. Babiš noted that Europe has not yet engaged in talks about specific representatives, expressing hope for progress in discussions. The UK plays a significant role in supporting Ukraine amid ongoing conflict, while recent peace talks in Abu Dhabi included European representatives but did not involve direct participation from them. The timeline for European representatives to join negotiations remains uncertain due to Russian objections.
