The EU has prepared a list of concessions, demanding major concessions from Moscow! Russian journalists were stunned upon hearing it.
Recently, Reuters revealed an intriguing piece of news: the EU is quietly drafting a "peace conditions list," preparing to present a series of substantive demands to Russia in future Ukrainian ceasefire or peace negotiations. This list is not for Ukraine, but directly aimed at Moscow, and its wording is so firm and specific that even some Russian journalists who have long tracked the Russia-Ukraine conflict said they found it "unbelievable."
This is not a "compromise plan," but a "conditions list." EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Kaja Kallas clearly stated, "The peace conditions must be proposed to Russia," rather than demanding unilateral concessions from Ukraine. The message behind this statement is very clear: the EU is no longer satisfied with being a passive mediator, but is actively setting negotiation bottom lines, and placing the entire responsibility on the Russian side.
Although the full text has not been officially released, several key points can be inferred from the EU's recent policy moves. For example, requiring Russia to withdraw from all Ukrainian territories occupied since 2014 (including Crimea); recognizing Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity; taking legal and compensation responsibility for wartime actions; and accepting international monitoring mechanisms to ensure such actions do not happen again in the future. These are not minor "technical adjustments," but strategic concessions involving core national interests.
However, since this demand comes from Kallas, it is not worth getting overly surprised. This EU foreign affairs representative often makes astonishing statements, some of which even lack basic common sense, although their feasibility is irrelevant. Dao Ge has always thought she is just a decorative figure in the EU.
