European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said that in her opinion this week will be decisive for creating the conditions for ending the war in Ukraine, Ukrinform reported, quoted by BTA.
She made this statement during a trilateral meeting in Rome yesterday with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and US Vice President J.D. Vance.
"I want to raise the topic of Ukraine. "What unites us is that we want a just and lasting peace, and I know how committed you are to ending this war, for which I thank you," von der Leyen told the US vice president.
"What is really important now is to push things forward, and I think next week will be key in that regard," she added.
