Kaliningrad Study
Kaliningrad in Europe Kaliningrad in Europe A study commissioned by the Council of Europe Edited by Mr Bartosz Cichocki Linguistic Editing œ Mr Paul Holtom, Mrs Catherine Gheribi This study has been drafted by a group of independent experts at the initiative of the Committee of Advisers on the Development of Transfrontier Co-operation in Central and Eastern Europe, an advisory body established by the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe. Although every care has been taken to ensure the accuracy of the information contained in this study, the Council of Europe takes no responsibility for factual errors or omissions.

Factual information correct at March 2003. © Council of Europe, 2003 Foreword Walter Schwimmer Secretary General of the Council of Europe Kaliningrad, the city and the Oblast, are these days receiving a lot of attention from international circles. The Russian Federation has been actively raising the awareness of European institutions about the peculiar situation of the region, separated by mainland Russia and surrounded by land by two countries, Lithuania and Poland, soon-to- become members of the European Union. The perspective of the enlargement of the European Union to the Russia‘s exclave immediate neighbours is raising fears that the isolation of the Oblast would deepen and its economic and social backwardness worsen. The Council of Europe has responded to these legitimate preoccupation by taking recently several initiatives. In 2002, the Parliamentary Assembly held a thorough debate which led to the adoption of Recommendation 1579 on the Enlargement of the European Union and the Kaliningrad Region. -

The EU is ready to assist Russia in this effort and to contribute to improving the situation at the borders so that people can cross these as speedily and easily as possible. The EU is also keen on co-operating on all the other important issues which concern this part of Russia and the wider Baltic region, including economic development, energy, environmental and health issues.

Proposal That the President Accept Honorary Irish Citizenship
Proposal That the President Accept Honorary Irish Citizenship Acceptance by the President of honorary Irish citizenship would fall within the spirit, if not the letter, of the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution. The procedure which has developed under the constitutional provision and its implementing statute would permit the President to participate in the formal ceremonies, accept the written evidence of the award and have it deposited with the Department of State, subject to the subsequent consent of Congress. Even if Congress does not enact consenting legislation, the President could probably have the document conferring honorary Irish citizenship delivered to him by the Department of State after he leaves the White House. May 10, 1963 MEMORANDUM OPINION FOR THE SPECIAL ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT* The Attorney General has asked me to respond to your memorandum of April 17, 1963, with respect to the legal aspects of the proposal that the President accept “honorary Irish citizenship.” For the reasons set forth hereafter, I believe that acceptance by the President of honorary Irish citizenship would fall within the spirit, if not the letter, of Article I, Section 9, Clause 8, of the Constitution which requires that an individual who holds an office of profit or trust under the United States must obtain the consent of Congress in order to accept “any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince or foreign State.” Nevertheless, the procedure which has developed under the constitutional provision and under section 3 of the Act of January 3, 1881 (ch. 32, 21 Stat. 603, 604 (codified at 5 U.S.C. -
