Event Overview
On June 12th, a crucial dialogue unfolded at the Delegation of the European Union to Brazil, hosted by Dorota Ostrowska-Cobas, Head of the Political Press and Information Section. The meeting brought together a compelling group of experts, including Oleksandr Slyvchuk from the Transatlantic Dialogue Centre (TDC) and Oskar Slushchenko of the Embassy of Ukraine in Brazil, to engage with diplomatic representatives from various EU member states. This gathering wasn’t just a formal event; it was a vital opportunity for direct and open conversation on the future of Ukraine’s relations with key global players.
Summary of Discussion
The primary purpose of the gathering was to engage in a constructive dialogue on Brazil’s position regarding the ongoing situation in Ukraine, as well as to understand the broader perspective of BRICS countries.
The discussion was focused on three critical topics: the political and security situation in Ukraine, the prospects for peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia, and the future of Ukraine’s relations with Brazil and other BRICS nations.
Implications
This event represents a significant step forward in building a more comprehensive understanding of Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine within the international community. By directly engaging with key diplomatic representatives in Brazil, the TDC has contributed to bridging geographical and political divides, promoting a more nuanced dialogue on one of the most pressing geopolitical issues of our time. The TDC remains committed to fostering these critical conversations and looks forward to continuing its engagement with Brazil and the wider international community.
