Sources, 'EU countries ready to ask for changes to the CAP' - Institutions. EU countries will raise the issue of reopening some "fundamental acts" of the Common Agricultural Policy on Monday at the Agriculture Council in Brussels.

"For now the main focus of the simplification is the CAP", highlight the same sources, but the proposals of the Brussels non-paper will give way to "a reflection" with "a much broader perspective than the current agricultural crisis", they say.
