Guido Crosetto will host defense ministers from Germany, France, Poland and the UK to coordinate military support for Ukraine and discuss European defense

On Friday, Italian Defense Minister Guido Crosetto will host a meeting with his counterparts from Germany, France, Poland and the UK to discuss coordinated support for Ukraine and strengthening European defense. This is the fourth such meeting as Kiev and its allies call for a 30-day truce to facilitate peace talks with Russia. The Kremlin has rejected the demand, emphasizing its desire for serious negotiations.
