The European Parliament's session in Strasbourg is also taking place in Brussels today due to fears of Corona. What happened a week ago after leaving?
According to sources, France has now responded by saying that it has made better arrangements in this regard, remember that the session of the European Parliament is held in Luxembourg.

Under the agreement, the official seat of parliament will be in Strasbourg and more plenary sessions will be held there.
The parliamentary committees will meet in Brussels, while the parliamentary staff secretariat will be in Luxembourg.
