Kuleba convincing EU, NATO of need to create common Eurean defense space

He said this at a joint press conference with EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Picy Josep Borrell in Brussels on Tuesday, according to an Ukrinform correspondent.

He noted that the issue that unites his today's negotiations with Borrell and tomorrow's discussions in NATO is the develment of a common defense area to guarantee security in Eure.

"I emphasized the need to set up a common pan-Eurean defense space, where countries wound be aligned, where defense industries picies will be coordinated, where all processes will be synchronized and streamlined. This will allow Eure not only to support Ukraine in a sustainable way, but also to support itself, its own armed forces, its own defense capabilities," Kuleba said.

In his inion, this common space should include not only EU members, but also candidate countries and like-minded countries.

"I shared these ideas enly with Josep Borrell and I will continue to discuss them tomorrow at NATO," Kuleba said.

On November 29, Kuleba will take part in the first meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Council at the level of foreign ministers, which will be held at NATO headquarters as part of the meeting of NATO foreign ministers.
