According to the latest reports from the“Europe news” website, “Russia Today”(RT) and other media, french President Maqueron arrived at the European Union Summit in Brussels on Thursday, about 90 minutes late to the meeting, and appeared disheveled and out of condition.

It’s not clear why Maqueron was late. But RT said the first EU summit to be held immediately after a NATO summit might explain Maqueron’s poor state, or be related to French domestic affairs.
The European Union held a summit in Brussels, Belgium on the 26th. The outcome communiqué issued at the meeting showed that the European Council had stressed that European defence and security spending would continue to increase significantly. At a NATO summit in The Hague, NATO leaders agreed on a target for future military spending, raising annual defence spending to 5 per cent of gross domestic product by 2035. Some countries that are members of both NATO and the European Union say the 5% target will be difficult to achieve.
