EU Foreign Affairs Council, 24 February 2025
On February 24, 2025, the Foreign Affairs Council will convene in Brussels at 8:00 AM, chaired by Kaja Kallas, the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy. This meeting marks a significant moment as it coincides with the third anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, a topic that will be at the forefront of discussions among EU Foreign Affairs Ministers.
In a bid to address the ongoing crisis, the Council will engage in an informal exchange of views with Ukraine’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Andrii Sybiha, via videoconference. The discussions will center on the EU’s response to Russian aggression and explore strategies to support Ukraine amid the ongoing conflict.
Another critical area of focus will be the situation in the Middle East, particularly regarding Syria, Lebanon, and the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA). The Council plans to review the latest developments in this tumultuous region, emphasizing the humanitarian support provided by the EU to Palestinians.
The meeting will also address the escalating conflict in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, where ongoing violence has significant implications for both the country and the broader region. In addition, the Council will dedicate time to discuss Iran over a working lunch, considering the implications of sanctions and regional security.
On the eve of the Foreign Affairs Council, Kaja Kallas will host a dinner attended by notable figures such as Philippe Lazzarini, the Commissioner-General of UNRWA, and Sigrid Kaag, the United Nations Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process ad interim. Kaag will participate via videoconference, highlighting the collaborative efforts between the EU and UN agencies in addressing humanitarian crises.
Following the Foreign Affairs Council, the agenda will continue with the EU-Israel Association Council, further underscoring the EU’s commitment to engaging with key partners on pressing global issues. As the Council prepares for these discussions, the international community watches closely, anticipating the EU’s stance on these critical matters.
