  "textContent": "Former Ukrainian President and leader of the European Solidarity party, Petro Poroshenko, said that current President Volodymyr Zelensky made a mistake in negotiations with Russia.\nAccording to Poroshenko, the mistake was allowing himself to be drawn into talks without the participation of Europe. He argued that European countries should now directly engage in the process, responding to French President Emmanuel Macron's call for Europe's immediate involvement.\n\"I believe the momentum [for Europe's participation] will grow,” Poroshenko said, adding that support from German Chancellor Friedrich Merz would also be necessary. \"Europe has every right to take part in negotiations, since it is currently financing Ukraine. Nevertheless, without U. S. President Donald Trump, without America, it will be impossible to reach a peace agreement. The role of the United States is crucial, but nothing will work without Europe either. They can play the roles of \"good cop' and \"bad cop,'” he added.",
