Poljska je 1. siječnja preuzela štafetu od Mađarske na čelu EU-a i predsjedat će Vijećem EU-a u prvoj polovici ove godine. Poljsko predsjedništvo dolazi u vrijeme promjena za Europu i podudara se s početkom novog mandata Europske komisije.
S obzirom na to da ruska agresija na Ukrajinu ne posustaje i da su geopolitičke napetosti na najvišoj razini u novijoj europskoj povijesti, Poljska se u svojim prioritetima fokusirala na sveobuhvatnu temu sigurnosti, koja uključuje vanjsku, unutarnju, gospodarsku, energetsku i zdravstvenu sigurnost, sigurnost opskrbe hranom i osiguravanje vladavine prava.
Ti su prioriteti u skladu s angažmanom Europskog gospodarskog i socijalnog odbora na poticanju kohezije, očuvanju demokratskih vrijednosti i osiguravanju stabilnog prosperiteta. „U EGSO-u smo ponosni na to da smo pouzdan i angažiran partner poljskog predsjedništva i imat ćemo aktivnu ulogu u oblikovanju političkih prioriteta koji će definirati novi europski ciklus”, izjavio je predsjednik EGSO-a Oliver Röpke.
EGSO će na zahtjev poljskog predsjedništva sastaviti 14 razmatračkih mišljenja. Pogledajte našu novu brošuru i podrobnije se upoznajte s tim mišljenjima i drugim aktivnostima EGSO-a u prvoj polovici 2025. godine. U njoj možete saznati i tko su poljski članovi EGSO-a i koje organizacije predstavljaju. Brošura je dostupna isključivo na internetu i samo na engleskom, poljskom, francuskom i njemačkom jeziku. (ll)
