What, they don't have email? What exactly is being proposed here? What would be the point of face to face negotiations? Since people are actively dying right now, why would you wait for people to be in the same spot?
- nextlevelwizard 5y agoI hope you aren't serious. Same reason why any important meeting is held face to face and not delegated to email. How do you verify who you are talking with? How do you make sure the communication isn't tampered with? From Russia's point of view how you make sure email with insane demands is not leaked?
- upofadown 5y agoI think for something like this they could afford the bother to have someone sign the emails. World leaders make pronouncements all the time and there is no problem with provenance. Everyone knows the issues and existing proposals/demands. You only have to cover whatever has changed. >From Russia's point of view how you make sure email with insane demands is not leaked? Any insane demands will be leaked by the other party. Nations can't have secret discussions that mean anything.
