The Meeting of the Committee of National Coordinators (CNC Meeting) of the CEI Member States will be held in preparation for the Meeting of the Ministers of Foreign Affairs – MFA Meeting, on 23 June.

In the framework of the ACSELL project, the webinar is taking place at 11:30- 13:00.

The meeting held under the Montenegrin Presidency 2021 will be an opportunity to reaffirm the CEI Member States' commitment to regional cooperation and multilateralism, while focusing on the ultimate goal of EU membership. Hence, the discussion will tackle the main steps needed to strategise the process, with an eye on enlargement methodology and regional mechanisms. The discussion will then cover relations with the Eastern Partnership Countries. Participants will also review the measures taken to mitigate COVID-19, with a focus on vaccination. 

The international symposium will centre on diplomacy, economics, science and religion. CEI Secretary General Roberto Antonione will moderate the keynote address by Giorgio Marrapodi, Director General of Development at Italy's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation, which will focus on the Italian cooperation in the world.
