Leaders from key countries, including Germany, Poland, Italy, Denmark, and the UK, will attend, alongside EU officials and NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk have confirmed their participation.
The meeting is expected to showcase a united European stance amid concerns over unilateral U.S. moves in the Ukraine crisis.
