Russland

Der Begleitausschuss EU-Russland ist das interne Gremium des EWSA, das für die Aufrechterhaltung der Beziehungen zur russischen Zivilgesellschaft zuständig ist.

Seit die Regierung der Russischen Föderation am 24. Februar 2022 den Krieg gegen die Ukraine begonnen hat, wurde die freie Zivilgesellschaft in Russland durch Sondergesetze und wachsende Repressionen zum Schweigen gebracht. Viele Kritiker des Regimes waren gezwungen, ins Exil zu gehen.

Trotz der aktuell schwierigen Lage hat der EWSA beschlossen, sich dem Dialog nicht zu verschließen, sondern ihn mit dem Teil der russischen Zivilgesellschaft, der sich in der EU aufhält und den Krieg ablehnt, aufrechtzuerhalten.

Das Ergebnis ist ein fruchtbarer Informations- und Meinungsaustausch darüber, wie die bilateralen Beziehungen nach dem Ende des Krieges und einer Rückkehr zu Freiheit und Demokratie aussehen sollten.

Anti-gypsyism: possible responses

Event
Public Hearing
European Economic and Social Committee (EESC), JDE building, room JDE51, Rue Belliard 99, 1040 Brussels
Belgium

Ahead of the international Roma Day on 8 April, the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) will hold a hearing on "Anti-gypsyism, possible responses", which will feed into the work of the EESC permanent study group on Roma inclusion monitoring the implementation the EU Framework for National Roma Integration Strategies.

Anti-gypsyism is an important barrier to the effective implementation of the framework and national integration strategies, and the hearing wants to shed light on possible responses to this cross-cutting problem. The European refugee crisis acerbates problems with general racism, xenophobia which also affects Roma. A hearing on anti-gypsyism and other forms of racism and xenophobia will allow exchanging best practices on how to combat these phenomena.
