Ukraine faces new challenges in peace talks with Russia.

FILE In this file photo taken on Thursday, Oct. 10, 2019, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy speaks during talks with journalists in Kyiv, Ukraine. Ukraine's president sits down Monday, Dec. 9, 2019 for peace talks in Paris with Russian President Vladimir Putin in their first face-to-face meeting, and the stakes could not be higher.

So there are concerns among those who support Ukraine's sovereignty that Zelenskiy might end up giving too many concessions to Putin. That could lead to a backlash from Ukrainians who strongly oppose any rapprochement with Russia. The biggest challenge for Kyiv probably comes from France itself, with Macron speaking recently of the “brain death” of NATO because of a lack of coordination and leadership from Washington and also saying he wants to re-engage with Russia.

Taras Kuzio, a security expert and professor at National University of Kyiv Mohyla Academy, said Zelenskiy has already weakened his own position by agreeing to the talks even though Russia insists Crimea is non-negotiable. Germany's relationship with Moscow has been complicated by last week's expulsion of two Russian diplomats over the brazen killing of a Georgian national in Berlin in August, with prosecutors suggesting the slaying was either ordered by Russia or authorities in the republic of Chechnya.

I guess so it’s like being caught between the devil 👿 and the deep blue sea. I mean the President and Russia.

What role will those brillant embassies play to assist President Zelinsky navigate these troubled waters with Russia ?Are we at liberty to assist ?

If America doesn't interfere there's no chance Europe can back Ukraine up. They will more likely give to dictator whatever he wants just for 'peace' as they gave up Czechoslovakia to Hitler in 1938. Someone has to stand up against bullies, but that someone has never been Europe.

Ukraine never should have given up its nukes. A Russian resurgence in expansionist ideology after the USSR fell to recreate a cushion of controlled nations around the Motherland is deep rooted in their beliefs and was easily predictable

Russians have increased attacks all along the border now they know the WH has their back.

It’s about time Europe learned to settle it own problems without our help.

No..

Russia wants control of Ukraine / with tRumps help
