    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Borrell said the informal summit on Monday was the first time the foreign ministers would meet outside existing EU territory.

    Discussions will take place amid concerns over cracks in support for US funding for the war and after a pro-Russian populist party won the most votes in an election in Slovakia on Saturday.

    On Sunday, Joe Biden pressed congressional Republicans to back a deal to provide more aid to Ukraine after provisions for Kyiv were left out of a bill to avoid a US government shutdown.

    It will include discussion of Zelenskiy’s 10-point peace plan, which calls for Ukraine’s 1991 borders to be fully restored and for Russian troops to return home.

    Without referring directly to the US bill, Zelenskiy said on Sunday that nothing would weaken his country’s fight against Russia and that no one could “shut down” Ukraine’s stability, endurance, strength and courage.

    As it was an informal meeting, the EU ministers would “consider a high level political debate” on next steps in support for Ukraine rather than “concrete conclusions and decisions”, Borrell said.
