Costa said in a post on X that the talks would begin at 1 p.m. on Tuesday and serve as a debriefing on discussions in Washington about Ukraine.
He added that, together with the United States, the European Union (EU) would continue working towards “a lasting peace that safeguards Ukraine’s and Europe’s vital security interests.”
