V4 Ambassadors to the EU Met with Brussels Think-tanks in an Open Debate

The event was opened by remarks by Ambassadors Jarosław Starzyk from Poland, Martin Povejšil from the Czech Republic, Peter Javorčík from Slovakia and Olivér Várhelyi from Hungary. The aim of the meeting was to create a platform for honest discussion between the two parties. It was an opportunity for the Ambassadors to present the priorities of their respective countries and the Visegrad Group as a whole and elaborate on how it works. For their part, the think-tankers provided with a mirror reflecting the current image of the Visegrad Group and asked questions on its common positions as well as particular matters pertinent to its individual members.
