BRU 17-18/02/2022 - 55 African Union members meet with EU members
Apologies for this early heads up, but otherwise I may forget about it. On the upside, it gives you some time to keep your agenda free for this should you wish to do so. On 17-18 February 2022 the European Union - African Union (AU) Summit takes place. Previous summit was in the Côte d'Ivoire (2017)...

Re: BRU 16/12/2021: EUCO (spotting opportunity)
Since I can't edit my post: this is Politico's running commentary of the EU Council meeting to find out when the meeting ends and thus when Leaders will be departing from Brussels airport.
