I don't really understand your point. The meeting is to discuss club competitions as well as Euro 2020. Why wait five days to have that meeting?

Arsenal's self isolation ends today.
You isolate for 2 weeks post exposure. Arsenal got exposed at the Olympiakos game 2 weeks ago.
Yes but when did they go into isolation?
As they played two games after that
From UEFA's own statement:The meeting is not to discuss club competitions, the fact they just suspended the City game should be enough to tell you that.
https://www.uefa.com/insideuefa/about-uefa/news/newsid=2640887.htmlDiscussions will include all domestic and European competitions, including UEFA EURO 2020.
They really need a decision on the Euros first. Any extension to the season depends entirely on the Euros being postponed as the international teams have first dibs on the players long before the end of June.Best thing to do now is just postpone all games for a month, get rid of all the uncertainty, then maybe pencil in a date mid april for it to start up again, see where we're up to by then and if it's safe to do so, start it up again and pick up where we left off. You could finish the season end of june.
I'm not a fan of the idea of just scrapping the season and starting again in August. People have spent fortunes this season buying tickets and travelling to games, not to mention missing out on family time, and all for nothing in the end?! Wouldnt like that at all.
Don't you think it would give the European professional leagues plus the CL/Euro Cups more flexibility in rescheduling after their postponements?
But the postponements are all until early to mid April.
So as long as they make a decision before then, the FAs will have the information they need.
Yes, presumably what happens with regards to the idea of fulfilling games in the summer if possible after the postponements.
Not carrying out games in the immediate future.
Tell me why you think Tuesday is too late to make a decision on if the Euros is cancelled/postponed to allow summer league football?
Bearing in mind the people that need to be at the meeting are also the people who are currently dealing with their local football situation and that they'll need to be coordinating with governments and city councils etc if postponing is on the table.

I heard the Euros were gonna be postponed until next summer, although that might not be definite yet.They really need a decision on the Euros first.

Takes a while to organise the stringent UEFA requirements for hospitality?I don't really understand your point. The meeting is to discuss club competitions as well as Euro 2020. Why wait five days to have that meeting?
