On the Presidency of the Council of the EU

There is no "Presidency of the EU" only "Presidency of the Council of the #EU" (Council of the EU, not of Europe).

And in spite of the customary hoopla - "PR" that most Presidencies generate, a Presidency of the Council of the EU should IMO be judged mostly if not exclusively on its performance in chairing the meetings of the Ministers, Coreper I & working groups.
