[Belgian Prime Minister: It is Impossible to Starve Russia Economically]
Brussels time March 14, 2026, Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever responded to questions in an interview with the Belgian newspaper "Echo" as follows:
It seems that dialogue between the EU and Russia and reaching a agreement is the only possible solution. Without the participation of the United States, Europe cannot indefinitely support Ukraine and provide weapons to it. More and more Europeans realize that it is impossible to economically strangle Russia. Without Moscow's authorization for negotiations, we cannot sit at the negotiation table, and the Americans will push Ukraine to accept the agreement. I can say that this would be a bad deal for us.
