Prime Minister Robert Abela is due to attend the ninth European Political Community summit in Dublin on Thursday, 12 November, where leaders will discuss Russia’s war in Ukraine and wider European security.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney are among those expected at the Convention Centre Dublin, alongside leaders from across Europe and representatives of European institutions. Irish Taoiseach Micheál Martin and European Council President António Costa will co-chair the summit.
Artificial intelligence is also expected to feature in the discussions. The summit comes after a series of emailed bomb threats targeted schools and passenger flights across Europe. Irish police assessed the threats sent to schools on Wednesday as non-credible.
The European Political Community first met in 2022, following Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Its previous summit was held in Yerevan, Armenia, in May.
Abela is also due to attend the informal European Council meeting in Dublin on Friday, 13 November.
