Europeans should be "ready to have their own diplomatic track" to Moscow, but the "priority" should be supporting Ukraine and increasing pressure on Russia, France's EU Affairs Minister Benjamin Haddad has told Euronews as the European Union mulls naming an envoy to talk to the Kremlin.
Speaking in an interview on Tuesday, Haddad said Russia is "not engaging seriously in diplomacy" and "not interested in a ceasefire or peace", adding that Moscow is also "losing ground" both on the battlefield and diplomatically.
