Opposition and associated media constantly resisted the desire of the new government in Poland to take joint action forum of the European Union, all States belonging to the Visegrad four (V4), writes Zbigniew Kuźmiuk.
Russia since the change of government, these actions offered, and all this has accelerated since the mid of this year, when our country passed the following year, the chairmanship of the V4 Group.
it Turned out that at yesterday’s informal summit of the 27 EU countries in Bratislava on behalf of the Group V4 is such a common position presented is Poland, and it was incredibly balanced.
Recall again that after the election the newly formed government of Prime Blows with an Awl, took the decision to change policy within the framework of the Visegrad Group, and the situation has changed further accelerated, after the entry of Poland’s presidency in the group from the beginning of January this year.
Since the meeting in various formats the V4 Group (Ministers, Prime Ministers, presidents) are held in every single month, and work out common positions, mainly in EU Affairs under-represented in Brussels.
And oddly enough, not only has in this regard, some exclusion with respect to Visegrad Quartet from the leading EU countries, but, on the contrary, is listening to her voice, which the clearest expression was that came to the meeting of V4 to Warsaw in late August, German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
in Warsaw, Chancellor Merkel heard that the V4 countries believe that the fight against excessive immigration must pass through the significant strengthening of the protection of the external borders of the EU, and increasing the assistance provided to refugees in the first countries affected by war, which gets.
she Heard that because of the terrorist threat and the need to ensure the safety of its residents, it did not accept migrants living in refugee camps in Greece and Italy.
Finally, she learned that over a British exit from the EU, the other 27 member countries, can not go in the agenda, since it is necessary to determine the reasons why the British decided to take this step saddled because a huge uncertainty.
If the causes of Britain’s exit from the EU, will not accurately defined and discussed, and EU policy will not change, it may be that there are new countries who want to go the same way.
In Bratislava Poland on behalf of the V4 introduced 3 point common position with a focus on security, the new agreement between the migrants and the future of the common market.
the first section of the V4 also offers enhanced cooperation in the area of defense of terrorist acts and transnational crime, is to bring that European Border service and Coast guard will receive a full operating ability, and finally, the strengthening of real cooperation in the military sphere, but without duplication of the efforts undertaken in the framework of NATO.
If we are talking about immigration, V4 offers a new agreement-flexible “solidarity” and given the economic opportunities and labour markets of individual member countries, which is especially important in light of the defeat of the so-called quotes of immigrants (after a year of its implementation is extended to 3% and the EC wants her to leave).
Finally, if we are talking about the development of the common market (freedom of movement of goods, services, capital and people), is V4 reminds that this is one of the main values of European integration, which all member countries (economically stronger, however, is).
so a common market to strengthen and not to weaken, but the weakening, for example, forsowana with all the forces through the EC Directive on delegated employees of the competitiveness of companies from Central and Eastern Europe operating in the market of Western Europe.
the debate on the future of the EU after Brexicie is just beginning, its culmination will take place in March, when the EU will be celebrated the 60th anniversary of its existence, and then it will be filed V. Britain’s bid to exit the EU, on the other hand, will be presenting solutions of all the other 27 countries, about the future of the Union.
it Turns out that if he wants, it is possible for the EU summit to go with the position wypracowanym in Warsaw, Budapest, Prague and Bratislava, and not as hitherto used only in Berlin.
