According to him, after 4 hours of intense discussion, leaders were able to complete the first item on the agenda of the European Council meeting.
The final document of the summit of heads of state and government contained only the text on Ukraine that had been agreed upon by consensus years ago.

And added: "For the first time in a year and a half, there may be a final declaration adopted by all member states."
"This is also possible if someone not only comes to set the table and instill fear, but also tries to find a compromise," he noted.
