EU-US differences must not overshadow the common ground we stand on\u201d \u2013 Deputy Prime Minister in Warsaw for the Informal Meeting of EU Foreign Ministers<\/p>\n

\u201cEU-US unity must remain our greatest strength. EU engagement with the US must be premised on a clear understanding of our shared objectives, and the differences in how we pursue them must not overshadow the common ground we stand on.\u201d Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Tourism Ian Borg underscored the importance of a resilient and cooperative EU-US relationship during the Gymnich Informal Meeting of EU Foreign Ministers hosted by the Polish Presidency of the EU, in Warsaw, on Thursday.<\/p>\n

He emphasised that this commitment to strong EU-US relations is essential in ongoing efforts towards peace in the Middle East and in Ukraine, combining the strategic influence of the US with the extensive regional engagement and diplomatic networks of the EU. \u201cThese should be leveraged, wherever possible, to deliver more effective, complementary responses to these challenges,\u201d Deputy Prime Minister Borg stated.<\/p>\n

Dr Borg also referred to the recent escalating developments in Gaza, reiterating Malta\u2019s call for a lasting ceasefire, the release of all hostages and stronger efforts to ensure that UNRWA remains a crucial lifeline of humanitarian support to civilians caught in this cycle of violence. He also reaffirmed the EU\u2019s sustained support for a two-state solution.<\/p>\n

During the meeting Dr Borg also briefed fellow EU foreign ministers on the case of the vessel Conscience and Malta\u2019s support to its passengers and crew in recent days, in line with international regulations.<\/p>\n
