Rain leaks through roof at European Council summit in Brussels
Rain leaking from the building's roof dripped onto journalists' desks at the European Council summit in Brussels. The incident occurred during a summer storm and has once again highlighted the meeting center's need for repairs.
The European Council summit in Brussels drew attention due to a roof leak that occurred overnight. Summer rain seeped through the building's glass roof, dripping onto the desks where journalists were seated.
After the incident, white buckets were placed in the journalists' area to prevent water accumulation. Images captured in photographs also laid bare the technical issues at the center hosting the summit.
A sudden storm on a hot day made the water leak more apparent. This has once again raised the profile of the budget planned for repairs to the European Council headquarters.

The leak in the Brussels meeting area came to the fore independently of the sessions' official agenda. The disruption in the journalists' working area raised questions about the summit venue.
The images clearly showed the white buckets used to collect water. The weather that day was also quite hot.
The incident bolstered expectations that the building needs renovation. Overshadowed by the summit, the episode sparked discussion about the physical conditions at the meeting center.
