The European Union summit held in Brussels emphasized in its statement the importance of respecting and implementing the rulings of the International Court of Justice, which are legally binding.

The EU reaffirmed the necessity of the services provided by UNRWA in Gaza and across the region, condemning any attempt to classify a UN agency as a "terrorist organization".

In another context, the EU condemned what it termed as "any threat directed against member states of the European Union," specifically referencing Cyprus and the warning issued by Hezbollah's Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah regarding the use of the Island's facilities to carry out aggression on Lebanon.

The European Union urged the Council, the Commission, and the High Representative for Foreign Affairs to advance efforts to enhance EU support for Lebanon, including the Lebanese Armed Forces and UNIFIL.
