The European Economic and Social Committee reaffirmed its unwavering support for a democratic Belarus by signing a Memorandum of Understanding with Belarusian democratic forces, as represented by Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya. This new Memorandum of Understanding formalises a new phase of structured collaboration to support Belarusian civil society and its European aspirations.
Following a debate in plenary with European Executive Vice-President Roxana Mînzatu, the European Economic and Social Committee adopted an own-initiative opinion urging the European Commission to deliver a more ambitious and fairer action plan for the implementation of the European Pillar of Social Rights.
