BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 12. Leaders from European and several non-European countries have gathered in Dublin, the capital of Ireland, for the European Political Community (EPC) summit.
According to Trend's special correspondent, Laman Zeynalova, the summit is taking place at a time when Europe is facing growing security threats, economic pressures, and questions about its place in an increasingly unstable world.

The summit is being chaired by the President of the European Council and the Prime Minister of Ireland.
