Friday, 6 January 2012Denmark will pay special attention to strengthening the relations with the countries included in the European Neighborhood Policy (ENP) during its presidency of the European Union.
The Danish government has announced the main priorities for the six-month-period of presidency, the EU official website said on Friday.
Responsible, dynamic and safe Europe will be the main priority of Denmark's presidency.
Denmark also attaches great importance to fulfill the updated neighborhood strategy.
Strengthening the ties with the countries included in the ENP program of the European Union is one of the main challenges facing Denmark.
The EU and Azerbaijan signed a partnership agreement, which became effective in 1999. Cooperation has also been effective within the European Neighborhood Policy, initiated in 2003.
In May 2010 Azerbaijani-EU relations entered a new phase, within the framework of the EU Eastern Partnership Program initiated by Poland and Sweden.
The Eastern Partnership is aimed at the political and economic rapprochement of six post-Soviet states - Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine and Belarus - and the EU. The program does not provide opportunities for EU membership, but involves facilitating the visa regime, energy cooperation and the introduction of free trade zones. |
