Diplomacy to end Ukraine war gets bogged down: Europe's leadership vacuum?

Description:

A ceasefire in Ukraine remains a distant prospect, to say nothing of an actual peace settlement. US diplomatic efforts in Moscow have become bogged down, with no compromise in sight on the fundamental issues, especially the territorial ones. Meanwhile, the EU seems to be relegated to a relatively minor diplomatic role – reacting to the Trump plan with a counter-proposal, and continuing to hold meetings of the "coalition of the willing" to help Kyiv.

Our two guests agree there should be a more proactive European diplomacy on Ukraine, but they see the contents of any peace proposal very differently. 

Programme prepared by Agnes Le Cossec, Oihana Almandoz, Perrine Desplats and Isabelle Romero
