EDITORIAL  Peace talks on Ukraine – is the EU omitted? As the US engages in direct negotiations with Moscow, the EU remains on the sidelines, relegated to a secondary role—or, for the first time in decades, to a position distinct and distant from that of the American superpower.

ENERGY Ukraine peace deal and its potential impact on European energy The past few weeks saw a series of enormous developments in relation to the war in Ukraine. First, the talks started in Saudi Arabia with the participation of delegations from the foreign ministries of Russia and the United States, then the rapidly deteriorating relationship between the US president Donald Trump and his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelensky, which has been labelled as a “dictator” by the American leader. The European Union (and the United Kingdom), important actors in the last three years when it comes to supporting Ukraine, have clearly been sidelined by the White House, as Trump decided to explore any potential solution with the Kremlin without involving US partners in Europe.  Click here to read the article

MIGRATION Trump’s Role in Ukraine Peace Talks: Exclusion, Diplomacy, and Global Impact The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has been a focal point of international diplomacy, with U.S. President Donald Trump actively involved in negotiations to broker peace. Recently, Trump has been at the forefront of talks between the U.S. and Russia, aiming to end the war. However, these efforts have raised concerns among European allies and Ukraine, who feel excluded from the discussions. The current state of peace negotiations, the role of Trump, and the implications of these talks on the broader geopolitical landscape remain key points of contention.  Click here to read the article

EMPLOYMENT & SOCIAL AFFAIRS Peace in Ukraine: the view from European societies Europe has been waiting for years to see an end to the war in Ukraine. Since 2022, the European Union has shown support and solidarity towards the authorities in Kyiv and the Ukrainian people. Still, a definitive stop to the fighting ongoing on European soil would be greatly welcomed by Brussels and all the EU governments. The matter is how the war should end: in the past three years, all European leaders talked about the need for a “just peace,” one that respects the integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine. What the US administration has in mind is probably quite far away from what both the EU and Ukraine expect, and this means that the potential impact of a negotiated deal between Washington and Moscow could be considered a direct blow to European security as a whole.  Click here to read the article
