It is reported that the ambassadors agreed on the draft document and sent it for consideration to the ministers of the EU countries, who must approve the plan on October 20. For its adoption, a qualified majority will be required — at least 55% of the Union states. After approval, the final text will be agreed between the member states and the European Parliament.
