What to keep an eye out for today<\/p>\n
European markets on Monday are likely to be focused on a number of geopolitical events that affect the region.<\/p>\n
First, there’s the much-anticipated U.K.-EU summit taking place in London on Monday. It’s expected that British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen will announce a new defense and security pact as well as further deals on cutting red tape, youth mobility and easing trade restrictions. Critics say the British government risks reversing Brexit.<\/p>\n
Later, U.S. President Donald Trump will be holding a call with Russia’s President Vladimir Putin. Both leaders decided to skip peace talks that were set to be held in Turkey last week. Both Russia and Ukraine blame each other for the failure to reach a ceasefire deal.<\/p>\n
