"It would be a suitable forum to, perhaps, re-start a conversation not specifically about the situation in Ukraine, but about the fundamental issue that goes beyond this framework, how security can be collectively ensured in Europe", Burger told a briefing.

Previously, Brussels and Washington raised concerns about Russia after reports claiming that Russian troops were gathering at the border with Ukraine. Moscow dismissed the reports, as President Vladimir Putin told his US counterpart Joe Biden that the troops are deployed on Russian territory and do not pose a threat to anyone.
