Summary/Abstract: The rotating presidency of the Council of the European union is a multi-aspect process. It is often described by EU integration researchers as a marathon of negotiations comprised by a combination of high complexity from institutional interests, government preferences, leadership strategies and regulatory procedures to achieve agreements and policy making. Herewith I would like to focus the attention to an important dimension in this complex process – the collaboration between the Rotating presidency with the European Parliament. This is emphasized in three directions: i) the important role of the European Parliament post adoption of the Treaty of Lisbon; ii) main aspects of collaboration between the Rotating Presidency and the European Parliament; iii) collaboration between the Rotating Presidency with the Constitutional Affairs Committee of the European Parliament that is responsible for the institutional questions.
