EU's top diplomat, raised under Soviet rule, warns Europe on Russia

Original: She grew up under Soviet rule; now the EU’s top diplomat, she warns Europe against giving Russia what it wants

Kaja Kallas, the European Union's High Representative for Foreign Affairs, is warning European leaders against conceding to Russian demands in negotiations over the war in Ukraine. Kallas grew up in Soviet-occupied Estonia, and she argues her personal experience of Soviet rule informs her view that appeasing Moscow would only invite further aggression.

Why now: Ongoing debates in Europe over Ukraine peace negotiations and how much to concede to Russia have put the EU's top diplomat's warnings in the spotlight.
