EUCO Debrief is our series of policy responses to the regularly published conclusions of the European Council. Each time the European Council meet for a summit, TEPSA gathers its leading academics to comment on the conclusions, analysing alliances formed, maintained, and broken, investigating the policy implications of the consensus reached, and prescribing solutions to move Europe forward. This month, our experts focus on a number of important topics discussed at the European Council: Energy Policy & Climate Change, Security & Defence, Migration, External Relations, and Economics & the Euro Summit.

This month, in addition to a foreword by TEPSA Secretary-General Jim Cloos and some concluding remarks by the University of Cologne’s Wolfgang Wessels, our expert contributors include:
