at half past six this morning, President of the Council, Charles Michel, took the shortest Tweet to the probably longest marathon of negotiations of the EU-history: “Deal!” 90 hours after the start of the summit on Friday the member States agreed on a 750 billion Euro aid programme to help , especially of the Corona-pandemic-hit States and sectors on the legs. Not two-thirds of the sum to be given, such as German Chancellor Merkel and French President Macron planned, in the form of grants, but only 390 billion, 360 billion in additional aid must be repaid by the recipient countries. Also on the first of the seven-year budget after the Brexit the countries agreed.
