Preparation of the October European Council

The Council finalised preparations of the October European Council by examining draft conclusions. At their meeting on 20-21 October EU leaders will focus on three subjects: migration, trade and Russia. With regard to migration the European Council will take stock of the measures taken to reduce migratory flows across the Central Mediterranean route and of the implementation of the EU-Turkey statement to support the countries of the Western Balkans route. On trade, EU leaders will discuss how to ensure that the EU trade policy reaps the benefits of open markets while addressing the concerns of the citizens. On Russia, the European Council will hold a comprehensive discussion on the relations that the EU has with this country.

"The Slovak Prime Minister, Robert Fico, is also going to report on progress in delivering on our commitments made at the Bratislava summit. For example, the EU has rapidly delivered on assistance to Bulgaria in the area of migration and on the Paris climate agreement. We should use these as examples of further ways of increasing trust of our citizens in the EU." 

Miroslav Lajčák, the Slovak Minister of Foreign and European Affairs and President of the Council
