European Parliament - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The debating chamber, the 'hemicycle' of the European Parliament in Brussels. |
 | | Although Brussels is generally treated as the 'capital' of the European Union, and the two institutions of the EU's executive, the European Commission and the Council of Ministers, both have their seats there, a protocol attached to the Treaty of Amsterdam requires that the European Parliament have monthly sessions in Strasbourg. |
 | | European Parliament party groups are distinct from the corresponding European political parties, although they are intimately linked. |
