Европа поддерживает мирные процессы на Южном Кавказе.

Европейский Союз и Европейское Партнерство за мирное урегулирование конфликта вокруг Нагорного Карабаха (EPNK)  объявляют грант, направленный на финансирование небольших проектов гражданского общества по миростроительству вокруг нагорно-карабахского конфликта.

Инициатива региональных грантов (RGI) была создана в рамках реализации второго этапа EPNK. Через RGI, ЕС и EPNK хотят привлечь новых партнеров, реагировать на возникающие потребности и программные пробелы в мирных процессых, а также обеспечить гибкий механизм для финансирования новой деятельности по укреплению доверия и укреплению мира в контексте нагорно-карабахского конфликта.

Общий бюджет RGI составляет EUR 100 000. Кандидаты должны предоставить свои проекты на сумму от EUR 10,000-20,000. Крайний срок подачи проектных предложений 15 ноября 2013 года. Эта инициатива финансируется Европейским Союзом и реализовывается под руководством EPNK.

EPNK представляет собой консорциум из пяти европейских НПО (International Alert, Ресурсы примирения, Инициатива кризисного управления, Kvinna till Kvinna и LINKS), который с местными партнерами на Южном Кавказе работает по широкому кругу проектов по укреплению доверия с целью положительного влияния на процесс урегулирования вокруг нагорно-карабахского конфликта. Этот консорциум, финансируемый ЕС, поддерживает динамический диалог между широким кругом политиков, СМИ и представителей гражданского общества всех сторон конфликта. EPNK также привлекает к более широкому участию в мирном процессе затронутых конфликтом людей, в том числе женщин, молодежи, внутренне перемещенных лиц и беженцев. Его деятельность пролегает вокруг трех основных тем: СМИ, государственная политика и пострадавшие от конфликтов группы.

Кандидатам на получение финансирования от RGI предлагается предоставить свои проекты, которые дополняют деятельность EPNK и внедряют новые инновационные инициативы по миростроительству. Формы заявок, а также  инструкции по их заполнению, в том числе критерии приемлемости RGI, можно найти на веб-сайте Представительства ЕС в Армении, Азербайджане и Грузии:

С 24 октября 2013 года информацию о грантах RGI можно будет найти на веб-сайте проекта EPNK: www.epnk.org.

Borrell tells the European Parliament that the situation in Afghanistan was critical, but the EU will remain engaged

Borrell underlined that the European Union will make every effort to support the peace process and to remain a committed partner to the Afghan people. "Of course, we will have to take into account the evolving situation, but disengagement is not an option.  We are clear on that: there is no alternative to a negotiated political settlement, through inclusive peace talks.

Turkiye to host COP31 in 2026

Turkiye to host COP31 in 2026

A consensus has emerged during COP 30, currently being held in Belan, Brazil, that COP 31 will be held in the Turkish city of Antalya, in 2026. In 2026 Turkiye will host another global event, the NATO leaders summit. Turkiye is set to host COP31 after reaching compromise with Australia.  The COP31 climate meeting is now expected to be held in Turkey after Australia dropped its bid to host the annual event. Under the UN rules, the right to host the COP in 2026 falls to a group of countries made up of Western Europe, Australia and others. A consensus must be reached but neither country had been willing to concede. Australia has now agreed to support the Turkish bid in return for their minister chairing the talks following negotiations at COP30, currently being held in Brazil. This unusual arrangement has taken observers by surprise. It is normal for a COP president to be from the host country and how this new partnership will work in practice remains to be seen. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has called the compromise with Turkey an "outstanding result" in an interview with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), noting Pacific issues would be "front and centre". He added that he had spoken to Papua New Guinea Prime Minister James Marape and Prime Minister Rabuka of Fiji. There will be relief among countries currently meeting at COP30 in the Brazilian city of Belém that a compromise has been reached as the lack of agreement on the venue was becoming an embarrassment for the UN.
