Joulukuun Eurooppa-neuvoston isot kysymykset koskevat muuttoliikettä, EU:n tulevaa rahoitusta ja sisämarkkinoiden kehittämistä. Kokouksen yhteydessä järjestettävässä eurohuippukokouksessa on tavoitteena jälleen kerran sopia konkreettisista toimista EMU:n vahvistamiseksi. Kuinka lihava riita unionin rahanjaosta vuosille 2021-27 on tulossa? Vesittyykö EMU:n uudistaminen? Kaappaako Brexit kokouksen agendan?
