EU Plans Extraordinary Summit on Defence, Ukraine on March 6
European Union leaders will meet for an extraordinary summit on March 6 to discuss additional support for Ukraine, European security guarantees and how to pay for European defence needs. The summit comes as the US President has started talks with Russia on ending the war in Ukraine without involving Ukraine or the EU. EU leaders aim to find a solution that complements US efforts while addressing their own defence investment needs.
- The extraordinary nature of this summit highlights the complexities of international diplomacy, where multiple parties must balance competing interests and priorities.
- Will the EU's new defence strategy be enough to reassure its member states and prevent another European-wide crisis?
