Germany, Ukraine to convene E3 security advisers as Russia targets energy grid

Germany and Ukraine have agreed to hold a meeting of national security advisers in the E3 format, as Russia continues strikes on Ukraine's energy sector. The E3 format brings together three key European powers — France, Germany, and the United Kingdom — to coordinate policy on major security issues. The meeting is part of Germany's effort to organize a "Coalition of the Willing" — a group of nations ready to provide direct support to Ukraine. No date or location for the talks has been announced.
