  • Joint Letter to the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs And
    Joint letter to the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, and Vice President of the European Commission and the European Commissioners for Development and Trade 5 December 2013 Dear Catherine Ashton, Andris Piebalgs and Karel de Gucht, First, we very much welcome the opportunity to regularly discuss “policy coherence for development” (PCD) during Foreign Affairs Council (DEV) meetings, in particular during the upcoming meeting that will be held on December 12th. But whilst substantial progress has been made over the past years, we believe more can be done to mainstream PCD across non- development policies, notably across trade policies. We would like also to take the opportunity to thank you for the organization of the next Informal Meeting of EU Experts on Economic Partnership Agreements (EPAs) in January. In this context, with the EPAs currently being negotiated between the EU and ACP regions precisely conceived as both trade and development tools, we want to highlight that the negotiations between the EU and ACP regions are at a critical stage for us all to be constructively supportive in pursuit of our joint objectives. As you know, our States have always supported development-oriented EPAs. Based on a shared commitment to a trade and development partnership between the EU and the ACP countries and regions, EPAs will promote regional integration and integration into the world economy, and enhance predictability and secure legal certainty. We remain convinced that these gradual and asymmetrical trade liberalization agreements, negotiated on a regional basis, and coupled with targeted co-operation and assistance to help ACP countries implement them, could have a significant positive impact on our partner countries.

  • Ukrainian Discourse on the Armenia–Azerbaijan Conflict
    COMMENTARIES Volume 1 • Issue 2 • Winter 2020 Ukrainian Discourse on the Armenia–Azerbaijan Conflict Anna Korzeniowska-Bihun* When the conflict escalated in the Nagorno-Karabakh war zone in September 2020, different opinions emerged in Ukraine on how the clash should be understood and which of its sides Ukraine should support. Most Ukrainian commentators compared the legal situation of the occupied territories belonging to Ukraine to the occupied territories belonging to Azerbaijan. This is why Kyiv officially stands for Baku. Never- theless, Ukraine’s support is limited to a diplomatic declaration only. Apart from the official position, there are also individual voices in Ukraine demanding either Kyiv’s greater involvement in helping Azerbaijan or, on the contrary, support for Armenia. The Ukrainian discourse on the Armenia–Azerbaijan conflict does not have to coin- cide with the assessments of the parties directly involved in the clash, because the Ukrainians interpret Caucasian events through the lens of the Ukrainian–Russian war. This paper highlights the Ukrainian discourse over the Armenia–Azerbaijan con- flict. The commentary focuses on both the Ukrainian mainstream political declara- tions and media perceptions of the Armenia–Azerbaijan clashes. Keywords: Nagorno-Karabakh region, Donbas, Crimea, hybrid war, Armenia, Azer- baijan, Ukraine * Dr. Anna Korzeniowska-Bihun is Co-founder and scientific secretary of the Academy of the East – Inde- pendent Research Center (Warsaw, Poland). 143 CAUCASUS STRATEGIC PERSPECTIVES Introduction When the conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia intensified in September 2020, the world community reacted to it in a rather typical and predictable way. The majority of countries either remained silent or voiced their concerns and appealed for returning to negotiations on the resolution of the conflict.
