A2 | Cooperation of the Visegrad Group

Cooperation inside the Visegrad Group depends on the political situation of each country. In recent years, the alliance has drawn attention to itself with its criticism of the southern European states and anti-immigrant rhetoric. Klára Votavová, a researcher at EUROPEUM Institute, wrote her commentary for the biweekly A2.

The cooperation of the Visegrad Group is not institutionalised in any way, in practice it mainly involves regular meetings of prime ministers, ministers and representatives of the state administration. The absence of a Visegrad bureaucracy and institutional memory means that the functioning of the alliance depends mainly on the current constellation of fault lines in Prague, Warsaw, Bratislava and Budapest.
