The European Council met for a special European Council on 1-2 October. The first day was focused on Europe's place in the world. On his arrival, Michel said a strategic debate on different international topics was needed, especially the EU’s relationship with Turkey. The situation in the Eastern Mediterranean originally tabled for a discussion over dinner, has been brought to the fore, along with the EU’s relations with Turkey. The EU’s two largest states hold divergent opinions on Turkey. Merkel said that the EU has an interest in developing a truly constructive relationship with Turkey, despite all the difficulties does not favour sanctions.
While Macron has been much more combative on Turkey in general and on its interference in the Armenian/Azerbaijan resurgence of conflict in Nagorny Karabakh, in particular,  accusing Turkey of sending Syrian Islamists from Turkey to the region to fight.  Michel called for more predictability and more stability in the region, saying it was important to Greece and Cyprus to demonstrate the support of the EU as a whole. Michel eluded to different options on the table and added that it was time that the EU says clearly what it wants from its future relationship with this part of the world.  The first discussion will focus on EU-China relations, following the EU-China leaders' meeting via video conference on 14 September. The EU wants a more balanced and reciprocal economic relationship, ensuring a level playing field, while also recognizing that China is an important strategic actor critical to addressing climate change and COVID-19. At the end of the session, leaders will discuss current issues, namely the situation in Belarus, the poisoning of Alexei Navalny, and the Nagorno-Karabakh escalation.
