"In the context of the exponential growth of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), the President of the European Parliament has announced a number of measures to contain the spread of epidemic and to safeguard Parliament's core activities.

The current precautionary measures adopted by the European Parliament to contain the spread of COVID-19 do not affect work on legislative priorities. Core activities are reduced, but maintained to ensure that the institution's legislative, budgetary, scrutiny functions are maintained.

The meetings will be with remote participation for Members (being able to view and listen to proceedings, ask for the floor and intervene in the meeting). Other participants are invited to follow the meeting through webstreaming.

Following these decisions, the next ordinary AFET Committee meeting will take place on 9 November (via videoconference).

Culture in external relations is the topic for the upcoming public hearing organised jointly by the Committee on Foreign Affairs and the Committee on Culture and Education on Thursday, 14 October 2021.
The Members together with the invited experts will exchange views on how culture could better feature in the EU's external relations as a soft power to foster sustainable economic and social development, to promote peace and fight radicalisation, and to strengthen cooperation on protecting cultural heritage. In 2017 Parliament adopted a resolution entitled "Towards an EU strategy for international cultural relations". The Public hearing will look into the implementation of the resolution and suggest possible avenues for further future developments in the cultural diplomacy field.

On Tuesday 5th October, Members of the European Parliament will debate in plenary the AFET/DEVE/BUDG joint implementation report that seeks to make a political evaluation of the EU Trust Funds (EUTFs) established since 2014 and extended until December 2021, as well as the Facility for Refugees in Turkey (FRT).
Parliament has acknowledged the value-added of these extra-budgetary (EUTFs) and extraordinary (FRT) tools but has also voiced criticism for a lack of democratic accountability in their operations/disbursement.
