布鲁塞尔,10月12日 - 欧洲理事会主席安东尼奥·科斯塔和欧盟委员会主席乌尔苏拉·冯德莱恩将于11月20日与英国首相安迪·伯纳姆举行欧盟-英国峰会,欧洲理事会周一表示。
BRUSSELS, Oct 12 - European Council President Antonio Costa and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen will meet British Prime Minister Andy Burnham on Nov. 20 for an EU-UK summit, the European Council said on Monday.
峰会将是加强战略伙伴关系、在欧洲和平与安全问题上采取共同立场的机会,一份声明称。
The summit will be an opportunity to strengthen the strategic partnership and take a common stance in working together for peace and security in Europe, a statement said.
“欧盟和英国是志同道合的伙伴,共享共同价值观,支持多边主义和基于规则的国际秩序,并致力于促进欧洲乃至世界各地的稳定与繁荣,”欧洲理事会在一份声明中表示。
"The EU and UK are like-minded partners which share common values, support multilateralism and a rules-based international order and engage in promoting stability and prosperity in Europe and around the world," the European Council said in a statement.
伯纳姆上个月表示,英国应重新考虑其与欧盟未来关系的选项,包括重新加入十年前投票退出的集团。
Burnham said last month that Britain should reconsider options for its future relationship with the EU, including rejoining the bloc it voted to leave a decade ago.
英国和欧盟此前曾讨论过合作领域,例如就某些公共卫生规则达成一致以减少农食产品的边境检查、青年流动计划、排放交易计划的衔接以及英国参与欧盟内部电力市场。
Britain and the European Union have previously discussed areas of cooperation, such as agreeing on certain public heath rules to reduce border checks on agrifood products, a youth mobility scheme, linkage of emission trading schemes and British participation in the EU internal electricity market.
这些可能成为峰会上的协议领域,该峰会原定于7月举行,但因伯纳姆的前任基尔·斯塔默宣布将辞职而被推迟。
These could be areas of agreement at the summit, which was originally due to take place in July, but was delayed after Burnham's predecessor Keir Starmer announced he would resign.
