Estonia held the presidency of the Council of the European Union during the second half of 2017.Шаблон:R The presidency was the first of three presidencies making up a presidency trio, followed by the presidency of Bulgaria and that of Austria.Шаблон:R It was the first time Estonia had held the presidency.Шаблон:R The motto that was chosen for the presidency was "Unity through balance".Шаблон:R

It was originally intended for the United Kingdom to hold this presidency instead, but after the referendum in June 2016 to leave the EU, the UK government informed the European Union that it would withdraw from the presidency, so the entire rotation of presidencies was brought forward six months, being replaced by Estonia, which was next.[1]
