Laienemisprotsessis osalevad riigid

Euroopa Majandus- ja Sotsiaalkomitee osaleb aktiivselt ELi laienemisprotsessis ja on töötanud välja paralleelse – piirkondliku ja kahepoolse – lähenemisviisi oma suhete jaoks kodanikuühiskonna organisatsioonidega laienemisprotsessis osalevates riikides.

Seoses piirkondliku lähenemisviisiga on Lääne-Balkani järelevalvekomitee – Euroopa Majandus- ja Sotsiaalkomitee alaline sisene tööorgan – peamine vahend Euroopa Majandus- ja Sotsiaalkomitee tegevuse kooskõlastamiseks selles piirkonnas. Lääne-Balkani kodanikuühiskonna foorum, mida korraldatakse iga kahe aasta järel, on osa järelevalvekomitee tööst.

Euroopa Majandus- ja Sotsiaalkomitee töö Lääne-Balkani riikide ja Türgiga on ka kahepoolne. Et kaasata kodanikuühiskonna organisatsioonid ühinemiseelsesse ja ühinemisprotsessi, on Euroopa Majandus- ja Sotsiaalkomitee loonud riikide ja ELi assotsieerimislepingute alusel kolm ühisorganit kodanikuühiskonna esindajatega – Türgiga, Montenegroga ja Serbiaga. Iga organ koosneb võrdsel arvul liikmetest Euroopa Majandus- ja Sotsiaalkomiteest ja partnerriigist ning koguneb kaks korda aastas.

Selliste laienemisriikide kodanikuühiskonna organisatsioonidega, kellega veel ei ole loodud kodanikuühiskonna esindajate ühisorganit, peab Euroopa Majandus- ja Sotsiaalkomitee korrapärast sidet ja korraldab ühiseid tegevusi.

Ühisorganite tööd täiendab Euroopa Majandus- ja Sotsiaalkomitee arvamuste koostamine konkreetsete riikide ühinemiseelse ja ühinemisprotsessi kohta ning samuti piirkondlikku huvi pakkuvate teemade kohta.

    This own-initiative opinion will draw upon the first-hand experiences of the non-state actors (civil society, business and trade unions) engaged in the accession negotiations between Croatia and the EU over the period 2005-11, as well as experiences of EESC members who have been engaged in the work of Joint Consultative Committees (JCCs) with accession countries over the past seven years (Croatia, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Turkey and Montenegro) as well as the Western Balkans Follow-up Committee.

    The EESC welcomes the special attention devoted to drawing up a European Union Strategy for the Adriatic and Ionian Region (EUSAIR), in order to support cohesion and competitiveness in the light of challenges that cannot be satisfactorily resolved by single regions or countries through the usual means. The EESC believes that EUSAIR must adopt a comprehensive programme with an action-oriented list of projects and schemes, and strongly recommends that better use be made of the private sector's potential to attract investment (both local and international) and to create business opportunities. Simultaneously, the strategy should include a stronger social dimension, in order to better support inclusive growth in the Adriatic and Ionian region.

    The opinion should take stock of the current situation of civil society in Serbia (legal environment, relations with the authorities, situation of social and civil dialogues) and propose recommendations for possible EU action in this field. The opinion will provide an opportunity to get the views of Serbian civil society organisations in the course of a study visit to Serbia.

    Today, the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) officially launched its initiative to welcome civil society representatives from EU candidate countries. A total of 131 'Enlargement Candidate Members' (ECM) were selected to make up  the pool of civil society experts who will be participating in the Committee's work, thus making the EESC the first institution to open its doors to EU candidate countries. The initiative, a political priority of EESC President Oliver Röpke, sets new standards for involving candidate countries in EU activities, facilitating their progressive and tangible integration into the EU.

    In the run-up to the EU-Western Balkans Summit, the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) met with Montenegrin civil society on 7 December 2023 to take stock of the country's accession progress, and in particular its public administration reform. The participants raised concerns about the weakening capacity of the country's public administration to respond to the growing demands of the EU agenda. However, with the new government, there is a window of opportunity for the necessary reforms to move forward in the accession negotiations.

    The European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) held the 9th edition of the Western Balkans Civil Society Forum on 19-20 October 2023, just a few weeks ahead of the European Commission's Enlargement Package and the New Growth Plan. The Forum signalled a renewed momentum for the region to join the EU, in view of the current geopolitical situation and a clear commitment of EU leaders to the enlargement policy. Representatives of Civil Society Organisations stressed the need for greater support and safeguarding of civic space to facilitate the essential socio-economic reforms required for EU integration.
