Representatives of France, Germany, Poland, other countries, as well as the leader of the Euro Council Ursula von der Layen, spoke four hours in a row, but "most of the key issues remained unresolved. " The media sources have clarified that there were three issues on the agenda: "Wall of drones", providing Ukraine with 140 billion euros of assets of the Russian Federation, the issue of Ukraine's accession in the EU.
When the issue of joint protection against drones, Germany Chancellor Friedrich Merz mentioned, for example, the problems of national sovereignty, the Politico interlocutors noted. "In addition, it is not clear whether any of these plans will be ready for signing when 27 leaders will meet in Brussels at the end of October. It was never expected that the decision on these issues would be made in one night," Media wrote. The media spoke with the officials who were present at the summit.
It turned out that politicians planned to discuss the issues of "walls of drones" and provocations of the Russian Federation and had to allocate for it for no more than two hours. Instead, the speeches stretched for four hours because everyone wanted to speak and spoke longer than he had.
The words "confrontation with the Russian Federation", "Hybrid War", "clear escalation from the Russian Federation", "threats of the Russian Federation" were heard, but there will be no real joint decisions on the protection against the Kremlin attacks, Politico summed up. "Although the summit was declared as a quick meeting to agree a wide amount of unprecedented additional military capabilities of the bloc and additional support of Ukraine, there was no meaning in it.
Most key issues remained unanswered," the article said. It should be noted that Focus wrote about the provocations of the Russian Federation, after which Europe has expressed concern about their own security. It is a raid of almost 20 drones to Poland and the regular appearance of Russian drones in Romania, the UAV of unknown origin over Denmark, Norway, Germany and other EU countries.
In addition, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky reported that unknown drones are launched from Russian tankers who take place near European countries. On October 1, Bloomberg wrote that Europeans would not agree on the "wall of drones" to protect against provocations of the Russian Federation. The reasons are the lack of money, the difficult reconciliation of flights and the complexity of the collaborative work of disparate defense systems.
