Euronews Portugal2 September 2026 at 07:02

The EU Foreign Ministers met in Ireland following Berlin attributing responsibility for a drone attack to Russia. This extraordinary meeting comes in response to increased geopolitical tensions in Europe.

Germany formally accused Russia of being behind a drone attack, which marked a significant turning point in EU-Russia relations. This accusation intensified the debate among member states on how to respond to this threat.

Maroš Šefčovič, a senior European official, spoke to Euronews about the situation, addressing the implications of this incident for European security and possible measures to be taken by the European Union.

United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres called for an end to wars at a time when the conflict in Europe continues to escalate and generate international concern.
