"The meeting called by Denmark, France, Greece, Latvia, Liberia, and UK is expected to cover the latest on peace and security situation in Ukraine. It coincides with three days of nuclear weapons drills involving tens of thousands of troops across Russia and Belarus, AFP noted, and comes just hours before Vladimir Putin is expected in China for a two-day visit."
"Not very subtle. Elsewhere, I will keep an eye on the new Hungarian prime minister Peter Magyar's first foreign trip as he is expected in Poland today for a two-day visit, the EU negotiators who are finalising (?) the implementation of the bloc's trade deal with the US, and on the meeting of Nato military chiefs in Brussels."
