I attended a meeting of the European Council in Brussels on Thursday 21 and Friday 22 March 2019.
In advance of the first working session on Thursday, I participated, for the second time, in a meeting of the Nordic-Baltic Group, along with Prime Minister Rutte of the Netherlands. We discussed Brexit and the agenda for the European Council.
This informal group includes Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia. We are like-minded with these countries on many issues across the EU agenda, and it is useful to strengthen our cooperation in this way, particularly as we look to a post-Brexit future.
