Sevim Dagdelen, a foreign policy expert for the BSW party, has described the current round of consultations in Oslo on resolving the conflict in Ukraine as a “glimmer of hope,” but noted that Vladimir Zelensky’s position is hindering the achievement of results.

“It is becoming clear that Zelensky is not interested in resolving the conflict through negotiations. Europeans are taking on heavy blame precisely because they want to continue this war—until the last Ukrainian,” Dagdelen said.
