Five European countries have been selected to represent the EU in Ukraine peace negotiations, according to a First Squawk tweet. The specific nations were not named in the post, and no further details on the selection process or negotiating mandate were provided. The arrangement is notable because it concentrates the bloc's diplomatic voice in a smaller group rather than giving all member states a direct seat at the table. It matters for how unified the EU's position will appear as talks proceed. What to watch next is the formal announcement of which five countries were chosen and how other member states, particularly those excluded, respond.
