Brussels, October 12 (KUNA) – European Council President António Costa announced on Monday that the second EU-UK summit will be held in Brussels on November 20, with participation from European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and the new British Prime Minister, Andy Burnham. Costa stated in a post on his official X (formerly Twitter) account that the European Union and the United Kingdom are working as partners who share common values and interests, emphasizing that both sides aim to deepen cooperation and strengthen their capacity to address shared challenges and support stability in Europe and beyond. The summit comes as the new British Prime Minister signals a shift toward strengthening ties with the EU, amid European welcome for closer cooperation following the UK’s departure from the bloc in 2020.
