Rotating Presidency and External Relations

In the sphere of external relations, the rotating presidency chairs only a limited number of working parties and committees. Most of the working parties in this policy area are chaired by a permanent chair, i.e. a representative of the High Representative for External Relations and Security. Nonetheless the rotating presidency has specific coordinating and organizational tasks and may be closely involved in international affairs. Presidency staff attending working parties chaired by a permanent chair will be briefed on potential tasks and responsibilities.
