Many feel Kallas is not up to the job.

Of all the bloated bureaucracies installed in Brussels, the seemingly less effective official is the EU’s top diplomat, Kaja Kallas.

In yet another of her faux-pas, she announced that the heroic European diplomats were still in Kiev, while the American would have fled after the Russian warnings of massive drone and missile attacks programmed for the next days and weeks.

But no one’s surprise, the information was incorrect, prompting US officials to criticize her statement, calling it a ‘false reporting’.

The Telegraph reported:

“Kaja Kallas, the EU’s most senior diplomat, claimed the US was the only country to evacuate its embassy in response to Russian threats against the Ukrainian capital over the weekend, while praising Europeans’ courage for remaining in place.

But in an unusual intervention highlighting the tensions between Washington and Brussels, the US embassy in Ukraine stated: ‘There are no changes to our operations, and reports otherwise are false’.”

Moscow has issued multiple warnings urging diplomats and foreigners living in Kiev to leave the city before its planned strikes on ‘decision-making centers’ in Kyiv.

“Sergei Lavrov, Russia’s foreign minister, also urged the US to evacuate its envoys in a personal phone call to Marco Rubio, the US secretary of state. In the days after their discussion, unsubstantiated images of what appeared to be diplomatic staff leaving the US embassy in Kyiv emerged.

[…] On Thursday, Ms. Kallas told reporters before a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Cyprus: ‘What we heard from Ukraine yesterday was that all the embassies stayed, except one, so that also takes courage from those embassies, but yes, all the Europeans stayed, America left’.”

Not only the US, but also the Ukrainians denied Kallas’ statement, in a big embarrassment for the EU official.
