Восточное Партнерство: Министры иностранных дел оценивают прогресс в достижении целевых показателей

15 октября, в Люксембурге, состоялось министерское совещание «Восточного партнерства» (EaP), в котором приняли участие министры иностранных дел ЕС и их коллеги из шести стран Восточного партнерства (Армения, Азербайджан, Беларусь, Грузия, Республика Молдова и Украина), а также ключевые заинтересованные стороны, участвующие в регионе. Встречу возглавила Верховный представитель ЕС по иностранным делам и политике безопасности Федерика Могерини.

Министры иностранных дел оценили прогресс в достижении к 2020 году 20 результатов, принятых на последнем саммите Восточного партнерства в ноябре 2017 года.

Встреча состоялась через год после последнего саммита Восточного партнерства, в ходе которого все партнеры договорились об амбициозном плане работы, направленном на то, чтобы принести ощутимые выгоды для граждан во всем регионе. С тех пор сотрудничество между ЕС и его шестью восточными странами-партнерами сосредоточено на работе в направлении более сильной экономики, более сильного управления, более сильных связей и более сильных обществ.

Встреча на уровне министров также дала возможность обменяться мнениями и подготовиться к предстоящей 10-й годовщине Восточного партнерства, которая будет отмечена рядом событий на протяжении 2019 года.

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.
