"On Point"
MINSK, 14 January (BelTA) - Key players in the European Union are unable to agree on matters of support for Ukraine, leading to discord within the EU itself, economist and analyst Serghei Banari said in the latest episode of the V Teme [On Point] project on BelTA’s YouTube channel.
Speaking on the prospects for peace negotiations concerning Ukraine, Serghei Banari pointed to Russia’s daily strengthening position and Europe’s weakening position. “Even the key players, France, the UK, and Germany, diverge on critical issues. This includes both the allocation of credit lines and the deployment of military contingents. In short, discord is beginning. The cockroaches are starting to eat each other,” said the analyst.
He suggested that this process could end with a transformation of the European Union, where a limited number of countries would begin to rebuild this alliance from scratch. “Nothing remains of what was envisioned during the creation of the Coal and Steel Community. Everything was destroyed. From a union that was supposed to build a prosperous, socially just European continent, we have seen deranged racists, chauvinists, anti-Semites, and Russophobes. Their only message is a message of death and war. They have nothing else,” the analyst emphasized.
According to Serghei Banari, membership in the European Union does not strengthen but rather weakens the sovereignty of its member states: “Absolutely unelected individuals practically trample into the mud the sovereignty, independence, and national interests of the countries participating in the European Union.”
