This is the week when things start happening again in the EU after its summer holiday. However, it will take a while for things to get back into completely full swing, as shown by the fact that the next College of Commissioners meeting isn’t until next week, and there’s no full Council or EP plenary meetings just yet. The big highlight of the week will of course be the 3rd round of the brexit negotiations, however they end up going. That isn’t all there is, however.

Monday, 28th August:

Third round of the Brexit negotiations:

  • Financial settlement, Ireland & citizens rights

2017 EU Ambassadors Conference:
