The European Union responded on Monday to potential plans for a summit next month between Russian President Vladimir Putin, US President Donald Trump, and Chinese President Xi Jinping to address the war in Ukraine. The EU stated that Putin has the power to end the conflict immediately without the need for such a meeting.

The EU's remarks come amid broader international developments, coinciding with G7 agriculture ministers agreeing in Paris on Monday to pursue a more prospective management approach to enhance agricultural resilience and reduce crisis-related volatility.
