The interim president of Romania, Ilie Bolojan, says the security guarantees to be granted to Ukraine will practically be for “the entire Eastern Flank, from the Baltic Sea to the Black Sea”. He said on Sunday, fresh from the leaders’ informal summit in London, that the summit was a coordination meeting ahead of the European Council on March 6 and of a meeting due on March 7, with leaders of non- EU countries who want a solution to the war in Ukraine to bring a lasting peace.

The leaders agreed that the security guarantees to be granted to Ukraine cannot be provided without US support. To this end, in continuation of the transatlantic partnership, the leaders will work on a joint plan, so that security guarantees be ensured both with a larger involvement by the European countries and also based on the US’ support, Bolojan told the media.

According to the interim president of Romania, the leaders agreed in London to maintain financial and military support for Ukraine. They also agreed to prepare the European countries to “assume a greater burden for peace in Europe”. To this end, they will consider increasing defense budgets in the near future, Bolojan said.

He added that in order to have a truce and reach a ceasefire as soon as possible, a resumption of dialogue between Ukraine and the US is needed. The leaders attending the summit agreed to hold consultations, in the next stage, and to make decisions by the end of next week, the interim president added.
