Zhao Dingzhe, a journalist from Xinhua News Agency, photographed Estonian Prime Minister Karas attending the EU Special Summit on February 1st in Brussels, Belgium. According to Zhao Dingzhe, a journalist from Xinhua News Agency, Costa stated on social media that he will be committed to promoting unity among member states and focusing on advancing the EU's strategic agenda. Karas stated on social media that in the current era of geopolitical tension, obtaining nominations is a huge responsibility. She stated that the conflicts in Europe, the escalating instability in the surrounding regions and globally are the main challenges facing European foreign policy. According to EU rules, only Costa among the three individuals can be directly employed, and the other two individuals also need to go through certain procedures. The position of President of the European Commission requires a vote by the European Parliament. The originally planned two-day EU summit ended early on the evening of the 27th. EU leaders also discussed issues such as Ukraine's military aid, the Palestinian Israeli conflict, EU defense industry financing, and economic competitiveness at the summit, and adopted the EU's strategic agenda for the next five years.
