	Description:		Talking Europe hosts two MEPs who are diametrically opposed on the question of EU military assistance to Ukraine. "The European Union is not a military union. It is a peace union. It should be an honest broker, a mediator between Russia and Ukraine," argues Slovak MEP Katarina Roth Nevedalova. "I'm not against individual member states supplying weapons to Ukraine, but this should not be a common EU position," she adds. Belgian MEP Assita Kanko counters: "If I was Bambi, unarmed, why would I negotiate peace with a lion? I would see peace, but the lion would only see a meal." Kanko continues: "Neutrality is not very far from complicity."
