The leaders discussed deepening cooperation in strategic sectors, including defence, nuclear energy and space. They also exchanged views on wider European and global issues, notably support for Ukraine and the situation in Lebanon. In addition, the summit launched initiatives to strengthen people‑to‑people ties, especially through youth and cultural programmes.
