1. Representation: It involves who speaks for the EU and presents its
positions, but it does not determine the EU's positions. This distinction is
based on the division of competencies and the competences of different EU
institutions. (TEU: Art 16, Art 29; TFEU: Art 218(9))
BASIC PRINCIPLES 2. Determining EU positions: The authority to determine EU positions follows
from the division of competencies. This responsibility is usually more for the
Council. (TEU: Art 16, Art 29; TFEU: Art 218(9))
3. Coordination: It ensures coherence among EU representations, especially in
the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) under Article 34 TEU.
The High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy
represents the EU in CFSP matters. They chair the Foreign Affairs Council and
contribute to the development and implementation of CFSP decisions. (TEU: Art 27)

that capacity’ (Article 15(6) TEU)
