War in Ukraine does not lead to anything: the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Slovakia about the need for peace negotiations

According to Yurai Blanar, after 600 days of the war, it was time to stop the fire, as Ukraine is "not in that position to displace" occupiers from its territory. The Slovak Republic considers Russian aggression against Ukraine as a violation of international law and is therefore ready to assist the Ukrainian side, but not in the military sphere.

At the same time, after more than 600 days of the war, there was a need for peace talks of Ukraine and the Russian Federation, as "conflict became a frozen phase. " This was stated by the Slovak Minister of Slovakia, Yura Blanar during a press conference in Vienna on November 23. According to the head of the Slovak Foreign Ministry, the situation on the line of fighting in Ukraine has not changed significantly, so there is a variant of peaceful solution. "A peaceful solution is always complicated.

But we must say that we need a ceasefire before peace negotiations. We now see that the conflict in Ukraine has been going on for over 600 days and does not lead to any results. I repeat again, we support Ukraine. However, we are We see that the conflict has entered the frozen phase, "the Blanar said. The minister also said that Slovakia was a ceasefire, as attempts to resolve the conflict by military do not lead to anything.

Moreover, Ukraine is "not in that position to displace" occupiers from its territory. "There is no military solution, and we need pressure for peace talks and support all peaceful efforts . . . I repeat once again that we are in favor of peace talk Of course, our position, the position of the Slovak Republic, "the Blanar emphasized. For his part, Austrian Foreign Minister Alexander Shalllenberg disagreed with the position of his Slovak colleague.

He noted that the main threat to Europe comes from the Russian Federation, and it is from Russian President Vladimir Putin that depends on the ceasefire. If Putin ceases to fight, then the war will end. If Ukraine ceases to fight, then Ukraine will be over. And then Slovakia can have a new neighbor, " - summarized Shallenberg. Recall that Russian President Vladimir Putin said during a speech at the G20 summit that the Kremlin never refused to negotiate with Kiev.
