Abstract
The article examines the main aspects of the Spain’s European policy as the President of the EU Council. The further course of the Kingdom’s European policy depends on the effectiveness of the Spanish government’s work in the Council in the second half of 2023. In addition to the main topic of the European agenda – geopolitical challenges – such important issues as energy independence and reduction of carbon dioxide emissions, migration, as well as taxation rules were touched upon. In addition, the integration process is discussed in the context of the new expansion policy.
