Íî ir îpaßa gada gråmata, jo tå ståsta par vésturisko 2002. gadu, kurå esam sañémußi uzaicinåjumu pievienoties NATO un ieståties Eiropas Savienîbå. Beidzot ir izlabota véstures netaisnîba un Molotova-Ribentropa pakta éna vairs neklåjas pår müsu valsti un tautu. Divdesmitais gadsimts ar tå spéka politiku un lielvalstu netîrajiem darîjumiem nu ir aizgåjis vésturé un pirmoreiz Latvija ar optimismu var skatîties nåkotné. Íajå darbå savu ieguldîjumu devis ikviens – valsts augståkås amatpersonas un paßvaldîbas, Ωurnålisti, pilsétnieki un laucinieki, uzñéméji un måkslinieki. Tå ir müsu kopîga uzvara, ar kuru més esam iezîméjußi savu ce¬u uz vél nebijußu nåkotnes sadarbîbu jaunå 21. gadsimta sabiedrîbå. Sarunu par ieståßanos Eiropas Savienîbå veiksmîgie rezultåti nebütu bijußi iespéjami bez cießas sadarbîbas un uzticîbas pilnåm attiecîbåm, kas paståvéja starp Årlietu ministriju un citåm valsts pårvaldes iestådém, bez izvérsta dialoga ar nevalstiskajåm organizåcijåm un profesionålajåm asociåcijåm. Sarunu gaitå bija prasmîgi jåsaskaño vispårîgås un atseviß˚ås intereses, lai péc tam vienå balsî runåtu Briselé. Tas bija sareΩ©îts un reizém sîkumains process, kad lielo politisko virsuzdevumu atkal apvienot Eiropu aizénoja sîksta kauléßanås par piena kvotåm, pårejas periodiem un tießajiem maksåjumiem. Nu sarunas ir pagåtné, un ar katru dienu, kas müs attålina no Kopenhågenas galotñu sanåksmes, tajå pieñemtå lémuma vésturiskå dimensija atgüst savu patieso nozîmîbu. Tießi par to nåkotné rakstîs politologi un vésturnieki. 2002. gadå sasniegtais ir visu atjaunotås neatkarîbas perioda årlietu ministru un diplomåtiskå dienesta ilgstoßa darba rezultåts, neatlaidîgi un par spîti pårejas perioda iekßpolitiskåm grütîbåm îstenojot péctecîgu valsts årpolitisko kursu. Ar Jåña Jurkåna roku ir parakstîti daudzie lîgumi ar årvalstîm par diplomåtisko attiecîbu nodibinåßanu vai protokoli par to atjaunoßanu, kas Latviju de facto atkal iesaistîja starptautiskajå aprité. Tolaik tå vél bija trausla neatkarîba, kuru izß˚irîgi nostiprinåja Georga Andrejeva panåktå Krievijas karaspéka izveßana no Latvijas. Valda Birkava darbîbas laikå tika izdarîta izß˚irîgå izvéle un pausta müsu griba ieståties Eiropas Savienîbå un pievienoties NATO. Tolaik ßie mér˚i izklausîjås tik nesasniedzami, ka Indu¬a Bérziña visgrütåkais uzdevums bija pårliecinåt kå müsu draugus, tå arî nåkamos partnerus, ka Latvija nedrîkst palikt kådå neskaidrå joslå uz divu vértîbu sistémas saskares robeΩåm, ka müsu valstij pienåkas sava noteikta vieta jaunajå Eiropas un pasaules ©eopolitiskajå izkårtojumå. Es vélos no sirds pateikties yearbook THE MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS OF THE REPUBLIC OF LATVIA LATVIJAS REPUBLIKAS ÅRLIETU MINISTRIJA gadagråmata saviem priekßgåjéjiem, kuri ir padarîjußi ßo lielo darbu, lai més varétu 2003. gadu sagaidît ar jauna laikmeta priekßsajütu Latvijas vésturé. Es gribu pateikties visiem maniem kolé©iem diplomåtiskajå dienestå, kuri bija ßî patiesi lielå un cießå komandas darba îstenie veicéji. Ar nesléptu prieku un gandarîjumu atskatoties uz 2002. gada veikumu, mums jåapzinås, ka jaunais Eiropas Savienîbas un NATO dalîbvalsts statuss mums izvirza arî jaunus uzdevumus. Dalîba abås spécîgajås organizåcijås nekad nav bijis paßmér˚is, bet gan lîdzeklis müsu nacionålo intereßu aizståvéßanai un îstenoßanai. Lîdz 2004. gadam, kad Latvija k¬üs abu starptautisko organizåciju pilntiesîga dalîbvalsts, ir jåizstrådå jauna årpolitiskå koncepcija, kurå nacionålås intereses bütu definétas atbilstîgi kvalitatîvi jaunajai politiskajai, ekonomiskajai un droßîbas situåcijai, kurå turpmåk paståvés un attîstîsies müsu valsts. Beidzot juzdamies droßi un aizsargåti savå valstiskajå neatkarîbå, beidzot reåli atzîti par lîdzvértîgiem partneriem Eiropas demokråtiju saimé, més tagad paßi veidojam gan savu, gan Eiropas kopîgo nåkotni. Aizvadîtie divpadsmit gadi ir devußi Latvijai unikålu pieredzi, kas jådara, lai pårvarétu totalitårismu un izkoptu sabiedrîbå tås kopîgås vértîbas, kas vieno Eiropas Savienîbas un NATO valstis. Íodien més ar lepnumu varam teikt, ka Latvijå valda demokråtija un cieña pret cilvéka tiesîbåm, plaukst brîva iniciatîva, un ir izkopta apziña, ka visi konflikti risinåmi mierîgå ce¬å. Veiksmîgais Latvijas 5 reformu process ir viena no müsu labåkajåm eksporta precém, ko esam gatavi piedåvåt valstîm, kas vélas îstenot lîdzîgas pårmaiñas. Par daΩådiem valsts pårvaldes un eirointegråcijas jautåjumiem jau esam konsultéjußi Horvåtiju, Ma˚edoniju, Gruziju, Ukrainu, Moldovu, Kazahstånu, Kirgizstånu. Tas ir Latvijas devums Eiropas un transatlantiskås telpas stabilitåtes paplaßinåßanai. Pédéjos desmit gados Latvijas sabiedrîbå un arî politikå ir valdîjusi vienpråtîga pårliecîba, ka Latvijas ce¬ß ir Eiropas ce¬ß. 2003. gada 20. septembrî ikvienam Latvijas pilsonim ar savu “jå” vai “né” büs iespéja ßo izvéli apstiprinåt tautas nobalsoßanå. Tas büs atbildîgs lémums, kas uz ilgiem gadiem izß˚irs müsu valsts un tautas likteni. Es neßaubos, ka izvéle büs tikpat drosmîga un tålredzîga kå 1990. gada pavasarî, kad ikviens no mums apzinåjås, ka, balsojot par neatkarîbas atgüßanu, més balsojam par Latvijas atgrießanos Eiropå.

At long last, an historical injustice has been corrected and the shadow of the Molotov- Ribbentrop Pact no longer hangs over our country and our nation. Latvia looks to the future with optimism, all the more so because the twentieth century, all too frequently marked by wars, power politics and dirty deals between the mighty, has passed into history. Latvia’s achievements in 2002 should be considered as our common victory. Everyone – from senior government officials and local councilmen, journalists, townspeople and farmers, to entrepreneurs and artists - contributed to this effort. Thus, together we were able to trace the path leading to our, heretofore unprecedented, participation in the decision-making processes of the new society of the 21st century. The successful results of accession negotiations with the European Union would not have been possible without the close cooperation and trust between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and other government institutions, without the extensive dialogue with NGOs and professional associations. In the course of discussions it was necessary to harmonise general and specific interests, so that we could speak with one voice in Brussels. It was a complicated and meticulous process, in which the noble goal of reunifying Europe was at times obscured by hard bargaining over milk quotas, transition periods and direct payments. Now that the negotiations are a thing of the past, we are once again able to see clearly and appreciate fully the historical significance of the decision made at the Copenhagen Summit. In the years to come, this is what the political scientists and historians will be writing about. What was achieved in 2002 is the result of the sustained effort of all Latvian Foreign Ministers and diplomats since the restoration of independence. They maintained a constant and consistent foreign policy direction, in spite of the internal political changes associated with the transition period. The numerous accords with foreign countries on the establishment
