Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha will fly to Brussels to attend the commemorative ASEAN-EU summit, which marks the 45th anniversary of their diplomatic relations, according to an informed source.

 

Prayut will join other ASEAN leaders on December 14th in meeting their EU counterparts. This is the first time ASEAN and EU leaders are meeting exclusively since the EU was granted strategic partnership status by ASEAN earlier this year.

 

Both the current situations in Ukraine and Myanmar will be high on the agenda when they discuss political and security issues. The EU, as a group, has taken a hard-line approach to the war in Ukraine. ASEAN has more diverse positions regarding the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
