AFP

Antony Blinken attended the tenth EU-US Energy Council meeting in Brussels on Tuesday, 4 April.

The US Secretary of State is in Belgium from Monday to Wednesday to attend the council as well as the Nato Foreign Ministerial.

Mr Blinken was expected to discuss ensuring energy security "while accelerating the clean energy transition" during the US-EU meeting, a US Department of State statement said.

Discussions will be held on energy with a focus on the outlook for next winter, including the situation in Ukraine and Moldova, and will touch on accelerating decarbonisation through clean-energy technologies and energy savings, the European Council said.

Mr Blinken will also hold bilateral meetings with European Union high representative and vice president Josep Borrell, Nato secretary general Jens Stoltenberg, and Ukrainian foreign minister Dmytro Kuleba while he is in Europe.
