Here is yesterday's Euronews article[0] which quite clearly shows who doesn't want to engage. "Russian President Vladimir Putin should make tangible concessions before the European Union picks up the phone to re-establish direct communications, High Representative Kaja Kallas said on Thursday as more European leaders call for direct engagement with the Kremlin as part of the Russia-Ukraine peace process currently being brokered by the White House." "Instead of focusing on who should talk to Putin, Kallas added, European countries should devote their energy to further crippling his war machine" "The European Commission, a long-standing advocate of the strategy of diplomatic isolation, later admitted that direct talks will happen "at some point" but not yet."
