Inicio » EU News » European Council Meetings, 12-13 December 2019

11/12/2019

The European Council is the EU institution that defines the general political direction and priorities of the European Union. It consists of the heads of state or government of the member states, together with its President and the President of the Commission. 

Bellow, we offer the agenda of the topics that will be addressed at the meeting of December 12 and 13:

Agenda highlights

EU leaders will look at several issues, including climate change and the EU’s long-term budget. This will be the first EU summit chaired by Charles Michel since he was elected European Council President by EU leaders on 2 July 2019.

Climate change

The European Council will finalise its guidance on the EUʼs long-term strategy on climate change to be submitted to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) secretariat in early 2020. EU leaders will focus on the target of achieving climate neutrality by 2050.

  • Tackling climate change in the EU (background information)
