“Euronews' Sasha Vakulina reports on the informal meeting of EU foreign affairs ministers in Ukraine as today marks the fourth anniversary of the Bucha massacre perpetrated by Russian forces.”
DISPUTED
The claim combines two assertions: (1) EU ministers met in Ukraine and (2) today marks the fourth anniversary of the Bucha massacre. While Wikipedia confirms the Bucha massacre occurred in 2022 (making 2023 the fourth anniversary), no evidence in the provided sources confirms the EU meeting in Ukraine. The claim conflates verified historical facts with unverified events.
