UPDATE 19:00: European Council President Antonio Costa was received by President Nicusor Dan at the Cotroceni Palace, RRA reporter Alina Stanuta transmitted.

The two are scheduled to hold tête-à-tête talks and official discussions, followed by joint press statements.

---Initial news---

European Council President Antonio Costa is expected to arrive in Bucharest on Wednesday evening and meet with President Nicusor Dan.

Romania is a stage in Antonio Costa's tour of Europe to meet with EU leaders.

During this tour of capitals, he wants to gather opinions from heads of state and government on the situation in the European Union and prepare the ground for the next international and European Council summits.

Two days ago, Romania received a visit from the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, who traveled through the frontline countries, located in the vicinity of Russia and the Republic of Belarus, or on the Black Sea, and whom she wanted to assure that they have the support of the community forum.
