Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko will visit to Brussels on August 30 at the invitation of top European Union officials, the presidential website said on Tuesday.
A tug of war between the EU and Russia over Ukraine has embroiled the former Soviet republic in a crisis that worsened when Moscow annexed Ukraine's Crimea region in March.
Poroshenko confirmed he would accept the invitation in a telephone conversation with European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso, the presidential website said.
A senior EU official, who asked not to be named, confirmed that Poroshenko had been invited to Brussels, but said the date had not been confirmed.
The official said Poroshenko was not invited to a summit of EU leaders taking place on Aug. 30 but would instead hold bilateral talks with Barroso and Herman Van Rompuy, president of the European Council.
