European Union leaders will meet for an extraordinary summit on March 6 to discuss additional support for Ukraine and European security concerns.
‘We are living a defining moment for Ukraine and European security,’ President of the European Council Antonio Costa said on X.
‘In my consultations with European leaders, I’ve heard a shared commitment to meet those challenges at EU level: strengthening European Defense and contributing decisively to peace on our continent and long-term security of Ukraine,’ he added.
He said that he will continue to work with President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen and all EU Member States to be ready to take decisions on March 6.
The decision to hold the European summit comes amid growing concern over US stance on the Russia-Ukraine war and its decision to begin negotiations with Russia to end the conflict without involving the European side.
