In brief
Germany, France, Britain, Italy and Poland could represent Europe at possible peace talks on Ukraine, Chancellor Friedrich Merz said. No final decision on EU representation has been made.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said five countries could represent Europe at possible peace talks on Ukraine, while stressing that EU representation remained undecided. RBC-Ukraine, citing Radio Svoboda, reported his remarks on the sidelines of a European Political Community meeting in Dublin.
Merz named Germany, France, Britain, Italy and Poland as possible participants. He said the E3 grouping of Germany, Britain and France was already operating, with some work on the issue also taking place in the broader five-country format.
He said he saw no problem with continuing that arrangement. The question of representation would be discussed without the press, he added; the five-country format remained a possibility rather than an agreed delegation.
