In Dublin, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting with President of the European Council António Costa and President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen.
The Head of State briefed them on the meetings in Abu Dhabi.
“Europeans were present in separate formats, and it is important that Europe be fully represented in the negotiation track with the Russians. Especially when it comes to security in Europe, support for Ukraine from Europe, and any commitments Europe will undertake,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized.
The leaders also discussed agreements with the European Union on additional support to help Ukraine get through the winter. Ukraine expects to receive energy and humanitarian aid packages, as well as assistance with shelters, in the near future.
They also coordinated their positions on opening the final two negotiating clusters and the next steps toward Ukraine’s accession to the European Union.
“We need to find the swiftest and fairest possible solutions, as our people who are defending all of Europe deserve,” the Head of State noted.
