Выступая после завершения саммита, президент Ван Ромпей заявил, что в ходе встречи он также "поднял вопрос о необходимости укрепления сотрудничества по безопасности в Европе, начиная с затяжных конфликтов у наших общих соседей".

Президент добавил:

"Я напомнил, что нам нужно всеобъемлющее урегулирование приднестровского конфликта. Основные принципы будущего урегулирования должны быть согласованы сейчас. Это конфликт, который может быть решен.

Мы призываем к продолжению взаимодействия и сотрудничества по Нагорному Карабаху в поддержке существующих переговорных процессов. Мы приветствуем позитивные изменения в российско-грузинских отношениях. Важно укрепить стабильность на Кавказе, на основе уважения принципов суверенитета и территориальной целостности."

EU leaders call on Trump to include Ukraine in summit with Putin

European Union leaders have appealed to U.S. President Donald Trump to defend their security interests at a summit with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin on Friday 15 August over the war in Ukraine. EU leaders are doing their best to exert some influence over the summit that they have been sidelined from. It remains unclear whether even Ukraine will take part but EU leaders underlined that “the path to peace in Ukraine cannot be decided without Ukraine.” According to AP, Trump has said that he wants to see whether Putin is serious about ending the war now in its fourth year. In a statement on Tuesday 12 August, EU leaders said that they “welcome the efforts of President Trump towards ending Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine.” The European Union will make a fresh attempt to rally Trump to Ukraine’s cause on Wednesday at virtual meetings convened by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. Trump did not confirm whether he would take part, but he stated: “I’m going to get everybody’s ideas” before meeting with Putin.
