Die Hohe Vertreterin der EU für Außen- und Sicherheitspolitik, Kaja Kallas, sprach zu den Teilnehmern der dritten Schwarzmeer-Sicherheitskonferenz der Internationalen Krim-Plattform.

She’s pretty and her accent is adorable.

Kallas seems to be in an unenviable position. Supposed to be the EU’s foreign minister, but she doesn’t have a stick to pull out (no EU force) when necessary. Member state foreign ministries do their own things that don’t align with what Kallas has to pitch, and then her own Commission President undercuts the foreign affairs chief by trying to reduce her scope.

Thanks.
