PM Babiš: EU agrees on team for Ukraine peace talks

European leaders have agreed on who will represent Europe in potential peace negotiations over Russia’s war against Ukraine, Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babiš (ANO) said after an informal summit in Dublin on Friday. European Council President António Costa confirmed that France, Germany, Italy, Poland and the United Kingdom would take part, alongside representatives of EU institutions. Babiš said Europe should negotiate collectively rather than appoint one or two envoys. The agreement follows US-Ukraine-Russia talks in Abu Dhabi this week, where Europeans were not directly involved. The summit was originally expected to focus on artificial intelligence and Europe’s dependence on American computing technology.
