The European Union will oppose talks on a new European security architecture until a ceasefire agreement is signed in Ukraine, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced.
According to the EU leader, the main EU and NATO countries want to participate in such consultations, and Brussels will insist on an appropriate format for them.
Also, von der Leyen referred to the upcoming trilateral consultations in Abu Dhabi without the participation of the 27. In this context, he expressed his intention to respond to Vladimir Zelensky's request for "negotiation assistance".
