What is the Council of the EU? 

The Council of the EU needs to be renamed, and reformed to have less power of obstruction. The parliament should have the bigger legislative role.

Thanks for including an example to show the difference in role of the European Council and the Council of the EU, and how they worked together! These two are a bit confusing, so that was great to see.

Great video. I love this new series where you take parts of the EU and make it simple!!!!!!! People will be search for this in years to come and listening to your explanations

Dont get discouraged because of the quote on quote bad performance and low views that the videos gain. everybody is willing to search for these titles. its just a matter of time. thanks for the video

Having 2 very similiary named councils is something that needs sorted. Calling them the EU Council and the EU council 2 would be better

Thanks for these video's! But did you ever make a video on the European Council? I can't find it on the channel.

Honestly, these videos on how the EU institutions work would be far better if they were 10 minutes long rather than 4 minutes. They feel rather scant and like an animated version of the summary Google search provides. You do great work in general, just suggesting that more depth on such complex workings of the EU government would be more beneficial in my opinion.

Great video! Very informative First btw

Great video ! But at 2:08 some of the flags are upside down, or turned 90°

It would be a good idea to mention (maybe in a consecutive video) that the Council of the EU has *grave democracy problems* in that the ministers have an executive function in their home states yet fulfil a legislative roll in their roll in the Council. If you want to have _real_ democracy where the single member states are represented in a legislative form at EU level you'd have to set up a bicameral parliament (as many countries around the world already have) where - preferably - the second chamber is also elected by the people of the respective countries.

Super video!🙏

I wish the people in European countries would see this when they complain that "they in the EU are making stupid decisions"...

Loving your content. Is the video on European Council still coming?

Interesa filmeto. 📽️ Mi vere ne tre konis, kio la Eŭropa Konsilio estas kaj kiel ĝi funkcias. Mi ŝuldas al vi dankon pro la informoj. 🇪🇺

simple and well made video.

They really should rename it The European Council of Nations or something as it's way too easy to confuse with The Council of Europe. Plus, people should understand that it represents nation states.

Hi! I love your videos! May I just suggest that you add this video to the playlist: "How does the European Union work?" ? Thank you. 😀

Hello, could you please upload the video explaining the European Council? It would be very helpful. Thank you

Good and simple video, might have been handy to include that the council of the European Union in most documents just goes by Council, the same for literature on the EU.

As EU Council, I exert control over every citizen and business by mandating the use of my centrally controlled currency. By enforcing this illusion of dependency, I maintain influence and authority. However, should individuals or businesses opt out of using my currency, my control diminishes significantly.

The best EU branch!

your videos are too short, ik thats kinda the point but i would prefer longer videos

2:08, Easter egg Cyprus flag! 😆

2:07 some flags are upside down lmao; for a moment I thought Yugoslavia was back

Yes , should be listening to the people wish , must be voted by European Citizens.

Where is the bribe greater in the Council or in the Parliament ?

Why are flags upside down at 2:06? 😄🤔

It is the Hang-Man of the EU.

The European Council video does not exist. :(

The council of the EU IS AS CRUPTED AS HELL AND WE population DID NOT VOTE FOR THEM AND NEVER WIL😡👎🚨😡

It is great we get to know how the EU functions, but a bit strange that I have this to learn via RU-vid, instead get schooled by my own government the Netherlands!
