Central Europe: A Region in Reshuffle | #CzechPPC
On 1 July 2022, France handed over the Presidency of the Council of the EU to Czechia, which holds its reigns once again, for the second time since becoming an EU Member State in 2004. During the second half of 2022, the Czech Presidency has to sail through troubled waters to address some of the most pressing EU issues, such as the Union’s response to the ongoing war of aggression being waged by Russia in Ukraine, as well as managing multiple ongoing files, such as the implementation of the EU Green Deal, reacting to the conclusion of the Conference on the Future of Europe, and much more. To scrutinise the priorities and challenges of the Presidency, TEPSA and its Czech Member Institute, the Institute of International Relations in Prague, hosted the Czech Pre-Presidency Conference on 23 and 24 May 2022 in Prague. In this parallel session we discuss the Central Europe region and its role in the European Union. The session will explore the recent developments regarding the evolution of the cooperation in Central Europe, in the context of the continued conflict between the European Commission and some members of the V4. This parallel session is co-organised with EUROPEUM Institute for European Policy. The session was chaired by Sabina Kajnč-Lange (European Institute of Public Administration), and featured the contributions of Péter Balázs (fmr. Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs), Marek Cichocki (College of Europe Natolin & European Center Natolin), and Magda Vášáryová (fmr. State Secretary of the Slovak Ministry of Foreign Affairs).
