This needs to be a permanent end to the war and not a temporary end, as we've seen in the past,

Rubio's words were very clear. Europe will be involved in the negotiations for a very clear reason: We have imposed sanctions on Russia, sanctions that are in place, and there can be no negotiations if the issue of sanctions is not at the table and around the table those who decided and apply them,

Tajani said
