Meetings

The ‘Barcelona Process: Union for the Mediterranean' gives a new impulse to the Euromed Partnership (the so-called Barcelona Process). According to the Joint Declaration adopted at the Paris Summit for the Mediterranean (13 July), it brings at least three very important improvements: by upgrading the political level of the EU's relationship with its Mediterranean partners; by providing for further co-ownership to our multilateral relations; and by making these relations more concrete and visible through additional regional and sub-regional projects, relevant for the citizens of the region. The Summit, co-chaired by French President and President of the European Council, Nicolas Sarkozy, and Egyptian President, Hosni Mubarak, brought together 43 European and Mediterranean States, the Community institutions and the regional organisations.
