Европейский Союз продолжает оказывать поддержку гражданскому обществу в миротворческих усилиях по Нагорному Карабаху.

Европейский Союз объявил о запуске второго этапа программ гражданского общества, направленных на поддержание миротворческих усилий в отношении конфликта вокруг Нагорного Карабаха.

Европейское партнерство за мирное урегулирование конфликта вокруг Нагорного Карабаха (EPNK) представляет собой консорциум из пяти европейских НПО, который стремится на Южном Кавказе работать с местными партнерами по широкому кругу миротворческих проектов по улучшению рамочных условий, способствующих положительному влиянию на процесс урегулирования нагорно-карабахского конфликта.

Финансируемые ЕС программы способствуют активному диалогу между широким кругом политиков, СМИ и представителями гражданского общества со всех сторон конфликта. Они также поддерживают более широкое участие в мирном процессе затронутых конфликтом людей, в том числе женщин, молодежи, внутренне перемещенных лиц и беженцев. Деятельность пролегает вокруг трех основных тем: СМИ, государственная политика и пострадавшие от конфликтов группы.

Они направлены на:

  • Расширение базы участия в миротворческих инициативах, с особым вниманием к маргинальным группам;
  • Укреплению доверия между всеми сторонами конфликта путем увеличения контактов между людьми;
  • Содействие распространению свежего анализа и новых идей, которые бросают вызов существующим рассуждениям о конфликте, с мирным видением будущего, и
  • Активное привлечение гражданского общества к диалогу с политиками на национальном и международном уровнях по преобразованию нагорно-карабахского конфликта.

Программа EPNK будет длиться три года и является продолжением программы, начатой ​​в 2009 году в рамках Инструмента стабильности. Инструмент стабильности Европейского Союза это особый финансовый инструмент, созданный для поддержания мирного урегулирования конфликтов, де-эскалации напряженности и постконфликтного восстановления во всем мире.

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.
