Russia continued to stall the talks as it hopes to occupy as much territory as possible and is probably not ready for any kind of compromises."
"This is the reason why we require to strengthen the sanctions regime. It's unexplainable, and unfortunately [regrettable], that we still doesn't have the 20th package of sanctions on the table, and we have to complete this as soon as possible."
"It is obvious that Ukraine needs out full support to win this war against the Russian aggression, as he stressed the EU loan is crucial to make sure Ukraine can prepare for the next winter."
Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda expresses concern that Middle East developments could divert global attention from Ukraine's critical war situation, where casualties remain high and peace remains distant. He argues Russia deliberately stalls negotiations to maximize territorial gains and avoid compromises. Nauseda emphasizes the need to strengthen sanctions regimes and expedite the 20th sanctions package, noting delays caused by Hungary's resistance.
