Eastern Partnership priority for whole EU: Estonian PM
The Eastern Partnership program is a priority for the whole European Union, said Estonian Prime Minister Jüri Ratas on the sidelines of the 5th Eastern Partnership Summit in Brussels on November 24.
“I think today we could see that the Eastern Partnership is now coming to the heart of Europe. I hope that today we could answer the question how we can make the Eastern Partnership even stronger for the people in six participating countries and in EU. We are stronger and better together,” he said. “I think one thing is important and sure that the Eastern Partnership is a priority for the whole EU.”
The 5th Eastern Partnership (EaP) summit kicked off in Brussels on 24 November.
Heads of state or government from the EU member states and the six Eastern Partnership countries (Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine and Armenia) will look forward to future cooperation.
They will also take stock of what has been achieved since the last summit in Riga in 2015, focusing on the tangible benefits delivered to the citizens of the six Eastern Partnership countries.
