“Georgia and Moldova are facing a crucial moment for their European path,” said Charles Michel, President of the European Council, in his invitation to the European Council meeting, which will take place in Brussels on 17 October 2024.
“The European Council will discuss several policy issues relating to our international relations, including the situation in Moldova, as well as in Georgia. Both countries are facing a crucial moment for their European path.
It is the European Council’s responsibility, enshrined in the Treaties, to define the general political directions and priorities of the Union and shape our collective stance on international relations.
I am confident that we will uphold our shared values and the rules-based international order, further strengthening the European Union’s influence on the global stage,” he said.
According to Charles Michel, the European Council meeting will also discuss the situation in Ukraine, focus on the Middle East, address competitiveness and economic resilience and set concrete measures to prevent irregular migration.
