Infrastructure and digital
connectivity, viewed as a strategic lever for economic cohesion
and the European integration process, as well as the role of
local governments and younger generations in creating an
increasingly connected, inclusive, and cohesive region, were
among the main topics discussed by the Parliamentary Committee
of the Parliamentary Dimension of the Central European
Initiative (CEI), which met today in Bucharest at the Parliament
Building. The meeting was opened by Rozália-Ibolya Biró,
President of the CEI Parliamentary Dimension, Mircea Abrudean,
President of the Romanian Senate, Clara Staicu, Secretary of
State for European Affairs, and Franco Dal Mas, CEI Secretary
General.
"Every step towards European integration, beginning with the
Western Balkans and expanding to include Ukraine and Moldova, is
a step towards stability, prosperity, and peace on our
continent," Dal Mas stated. "This is not just a foreign policy
goal: it is a shared political and strategic project, at the
heart of the CEI's mission and identity," he said, referring to
Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani's view that EU enlargement
represents a "true reunification of Europe."
