BRUSSELS - Federica Mogherini, the EUs foreign policy chief, has said the bloc should launch a new debate with Russia aimed at ending the confrontation over Ukraine.
She told Italys La Repubblica daily on Saturday (27 December): The current situation is very difficult for Russia. It would be in its interest to contribute to ending the conflict. At the same time, we all know that Russia plays an important role not only in Ukraine, but also in Syria, Iran, the Middle East, Libya.
We have to open a direct debate with Moscow on our mutual relations and the role that Russia can play in other crises.
She noted that Ukraine and the US also want a way out.
