EU summit planned before G20 meet

The European Union's Swedish presidency is planning an extraordinary summit of EU leaders in September ahead of a meeting of the Group of 20 powers in the United States, diplomats said Monday.
“It is likely that the summit will take place a few days before the G20," to be held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on September 24 and 25, one diplomat said, with the aim being to prepare a common EU position for the economy talks.
