Many EU heads of government and foreign ministers regularly join forces in Kiev and demonstrate their unwavering support for Ukraine, which has been invaded by Russia. An EU Council of Foreign Ministers will soon be held in the war-torn country, according to EU Foreign Affairs Official Josep Borrell.
“I can announce to you that we will convene a meeting of foreign ministers in Kiev,” the Spaniard said on Monday after an EU meeting on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York. According to information from EU circles, the meeting, which is particularly important symbolically, could be organized in the first week of October. However, Borrell did not want to confirm this. “Allow me to keep the exact date a secret,” he said.
Borrell mentioned a topic for the EU’s planned meeting with his proposal to make longer-term financial commitments for military aid to Ukraine and to use EU money to support the supply of modern fighter jets and missiles. He wants to mobilize five billion euros annually from 2024 to the end of 2027.
Ukraine has been an official candidate for membership since June
Moreover, it is likely to be at least marginally about Ukraine’s EU accession prospects. The country has been an official candidate for membership since June. However, the 27 EU countries must still decide unanimously whether or not to start negotiations.
