Восточное партнерство имеет огромный потенциал

Восточное партнерство имеет огромный потенциал, который возможно будет реализовать благодаря совместным усилиям.

Об этом сказала в понедельник в своем видеообращении верховный представитель ЕС по иностранным делам и политике безопасности Федерика Могерини участникам мероприятия, посвященного запуску новой институциональной структуры инициативы «Восточное партнерство» в Брюсселе, сообщает информационное агентство Trend.

"Вместе мы можем реализовать огромный потенциал Восточного партнерства для всех граждан нашего общего европейского континента", - сказала она.

Могерини напомнила, что в ноябре прошлого года на саммите в Брюсселе было принято решение вывести сотрудничество между странами ЕС и "Восточного партнерства" на новый, более амбициозный уровень.

"Впервые у нас есть конкретная дорожная карта в рамках Восточного партнерства с 20 практическими целями, которые должны быть достигнуты к 2020 году. Каждая из этих целей связана с повседневной жизнью наших граждан. Мы установили планку очень высоко. Поэтому мы также решили изменить способы реализации этих целей путем создания новой структуры для Восточного партнерства. Мы решили быть более практичными и более сосредоточенными на потребностях наших граждан", - сказала она.

Dozens participate in new Armenia-Azerbaijan dialogue process as societies prepare for the signing of historic peace agreement

The governments of Armenia and Azerbaijan have recently agreed the text of a historic peace agreement that ends years of animosity and warfare. The agreement is expected to be signed soon. LINKS Europe, which has a long history of engagement with the process of peace in the region, recently launched a new Armenia-Azerbaijan dialogue format in the framework of the European Union's EU4Peace initiative. In the last two weeks dozens of Armenians and Azerbaijanis, including academics, students, civil society activists, journalists and other professionals, many of them young, were involved. The work is organised in five thematic groups focusing on peace and security, connectivity, environment, governance and gender and equality and in phase 2 of the project, which has just ended, around fifty participants took part in in-person and online meetings, and more than twenty others were involved indirectly. The Chairpersons of the five thematic groups met in Vilnius, 3-6 July to launch the third phase of the program. The five thematic groups are now working on separate reports, which are expected to be finished in November and presented to the two governments and other stakeholders. The reports will outline a vision, up to 2040.
