The European Union must maintain sanctions against Russia and divert its energy distributions as it is systematically used to intimidate Moscow’s energy; Austrian President Christian Stakker announced that it was a ‘euroneus’ in a special interview.
In a debate from the PPE Congress in Valencia, Stacker, which leads a tripartite alliance, explained that the EU should differ between Russia and Putin and that President Vladimir Putin should produce the future when he comes out of power.
“Russia is beyond Putin,” said Stoker. “Treatment with Putin is incredibly difficult, but Russia will remain there when he is no longer in power. For now, we see Russia as a threat (including Austria), because false information campaigns targeting Western democracy.
Stackter continued to talk about relaxing sanctions against Russia, because at this time, the excessive fire in Ukraine was not expected at this time. Consider that any peace agreement must be respected by Ukraine’s terms.
“At this time I don’t show it, but I will get it with open weapons,” he agreed to a potential fight. “But we should not impose any fire or any peace agreement. Ukraine must define the conditions that need to be achieved. Putin has no interest right now. If a peace agreement is reached, the European Union will determine its position.
The Chancellor also illustrates the need to further reduce the energy dependence of the EU’s with Russia. The European Commission plans to completely separate Europe from Russian energy imports.
“We learned by bad people who are not wise to depend on a supplier; especially when the energy becomes a blackmail tool,” he said. “That is why we diversify our energy resources. We are becoming independent from Russian gas. The problem is dependent. Now, clearly, this dependence is not a good policy or standard solution. So we are going to end it.”
Neutrality without ignoring a relapse
Stacker argued that the security guarantees of the Cold War Era have faded and the new plans for reorganizing Europe are supporting.
“For a long time, we had the illusion that the war in Europe was the past,” he said, saying, ‘Euronevas. “I was born in 1960. After the war. The ruins were rebuilt. I believed that there would be no war again in Europe. Security systems around that belief were designed. But now we see that it is a misconception. Therefore, we have to redesigned the security and be held responsible.”
Austria takes part in EU security for receiving a joint plan.
“We are neutral in a military sense, but it does not mean that we are not investing in our own safety,” the Stacker decided. “Instead, we double the cost of safety in GDP. In recent years, we have already increased the budget significantly. Therefore, we are investing in our security within the neutral framework.”
But unlike Sweden or Finland, Austria does not consider the bonding of NATO.
“Adhesion with NATO is not the title of debate in Austria. First, our neutrality, and secondly, we are trying to manage our security cost effectively,” the Stoker said.
“For example, the Ski Shield acquisition site is not a EU initiative, but Europe, which includes Switzerland. It allows for the profit of the system and ensures its applicability, while maintaining command and sequences in the Austrian hands.”
Migrants who have no rights to leave
When the displacement issue arose, Foreign Minister Stakker said the EU’s migration contract was a great step in the right direction, but Brussels should take immediate action.
Advertisement“This is not to accept a Trump -fashion approach, but we need a strong and secure external boundary, which is due to it, in which the asylum procedures are carried out directly on the border. This is an essential element. The second element is the second element, the third element.”
The Chancellor continued to leave 100% of immigrants who do not have the right to stay in Europe.
“We want people who do not have legal right to stay in Austria or Europe. Yes, as we have heard, only 20% of those who do not have residential permits are not enough. It must be 100%. Even if it is not entirely able to complete it, it must continue to be our goal.”
