Read excerpt
The mass influx of migrants into Ceuta over the summer has placed a controversial migration measure on EU ministers’ agenda.

What von der Leyen’s words reveal about the mood in the EU (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ursula von der Leyen’s big speech covered a wide range of topics, from closer ties with Canada to climate change, from trade with China to artificial intelligence.
