EU Council

The Duran’s Alex Christoforou and Editor-in-Chief Alexander Mercouris discuss how European Union leaders have agreed on who should fill the top unelected positions for its main institutions for the next five, years after a marathon summit where Merkel and Macron wrestled for control and influence over the authoritarian union.
