In Dublin, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting with the national security advisors of the E4 countries – the United Kingdom, Germany, France, and Italy – as well as those of the European Commission and the European Council.
The meeting was attended by National Security Advisor to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Jonathan Powell, Advisor for Continental Europe and Türkiye to the President of France Bertrand Buchwalter, Foreign Policy and Security Advisor to the Federal Chancellor of Germany Günter Sautter, Diplomatic Advisor to the President of the Council of Ministers of Italy Fabrizio Saggio, Head of Cabinet of the President of the European Commission Bjoern Seibert and her Chief Diplomatic Advisor Simon Mordue, and Chief Foreign Policy Advisor to the President of the European Council Anna-Maria Boura.
The Head of State thanked them for their engagement in communication with the American side, their constructive approach, and their support.
They discussed the meetings held in recent weeks and days in Brussels and Abu Dhabi.
“We all view the resumption of negotiations positively. But the search for solutions that could help end this war must be realistic, pragmatic, and involve Europe to the fullest extent possible,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted.
They also exchanged views ahead of the President of Ukraine’s meeting with the U.S. President’s envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, in Dublin, following the American side’s visit to Russia.
