Zelensky in Brussels on Thursday?

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has been invited to participate in "a future summit" of the Twenty-Seven, a spokesman for European Council President Charles Michel announced on Monday.

“For security reasons, no further information will be disclosed,” said a spokesperson for the European leader, Barend Leyts, on Twitter.
