EU Council President Charles Michel says that European leaders sealed an agreement on a massive long-term budget and coronavirus recovery package

Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki had warned that it could be a case of us now, you tomorrow.

But Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte said he still had questions about the compromise, like his neighbours in Belgium and Luxembourg. He had planned to seek legal advice, particularly as to whether the compromise would violate the agreement previously reached between EU member countries and the European Parliament.

France, Greece, and Greek Cypriot administration are pushing for strong action against Turkey, but other EU nations including Germany, Italy and Poland oppose slapping broad sanctions or an embargo on a fellow NATO member. He said that Turkey was an "important ally" that had helped battle Daesh and hosts millions of refugees from Syria.

He also said he is working to strengthen and expand a NATO deconfliction mechanism between Greece and Turkey to prevent any incidents or accidents between two NATO allies.
