MEPs to debate priorities of 21-22 March EU Summit  

On Wednesday morning, MEPs will discuss their priorities for the 21-22 March EU summit with the Romanian Council Presidency and the Commission.

The spring meeting of EU heads of state or government traditionally focuses on jobs, growth and competitiveness.

EU leaders will also discuss the EU’s long-term strategy to fight climate change, external relations (especially the EU-China summit of 9 April) and ways to fight disinformation and protect the democratic integrity of the European and national elections across the EU.

During the debate, MEPs are also likely to comment on the outcome of the vote on the Brexit deal in the UK House of Commons on 12 March and assess its consequences.
