During this meeting, the two presidents discussed a number of themes that would also be covered during the plenary sessions of the ‘Arraiolos’ meeting with their other colleagues. The situation in Ukraine was discussed at length from the geopolitical and energy security perspectives. The need for unity was underlined by both presidents. Migration on the Central Mediterranean route and the scenario in the Western Balkans were also up for discussion. The Presidents exchanged views on the wide-ranging effects of climate change with the run-up to COP27 summit being mentioned in this regard.
