Briefing by News4U · First published
Today European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said it is “self-explanatory” that Europe should be included in peace talks on Ukraine “to safeguard our interests, but also to support Ukraine.” Speaking to the media in Dublin on the day of an informal European Union leaders’ meeting, she said the Commission will come forward with a proposal for the financing of the Ukrainian needs in 2027, and with the 22nd sanctions package before the next European Council. She also said today’s talks would focus on “the risks … but also the opportunities” associated with the rise of AI. [1]
