The European Commission is fully committed to pursuing the objectives of the Energy1 Union strategy. In this context, the Commission is promoting diversification and competitive gas markets in the EU. In order to complete the internal energy’ market, the Commission supports infrastructure projects of common interest, which improve the interconnectivity between the Member States. Furthermore, the Commission, together with the Member States, is working to improve the resilience of the EU gas system to security of supply threats. To this end. the Commission has proposed a revised Regulation on security of gas supplies on which the European Parliament and the Council have recently reached an agreement. As regards Nord Stream 2, the Commission considers that the project is not in line with the policy objectives of the Energy' Union as it will not give access to a new supply source. Nord Stream 2, if built, cannot and should not be operated in a legal void or solely according to the law of a third country. Mr Jeppe KOFOD and 64 MEP co- signatories Member of the European Parliament E-mail · jeppe. kofod7aie uro pari, europa, eu As a result a special legal regime respecting fundamental principles of international and EU energy law needs to be established.

    Antanas GUOGA Member of the European Parliament Chief Investment Officer of the City of Vilnius To Stuart Gulliver, Group CEO of HSBC 24 of June, 2016 Dear Stuart, I am very sorry that the U.K. decided to leave the European Union. The divorce process is going to be very long and protracted. I hope Britain will get stronger as soon as possible as we are all better of this way. Today, among other things, you must be thinking about where to relocate your EU operations, so that you are able to access the European single market without restrictions. As a Member of the European Parliament and also the Chief Investment Officer of the City of Vilnius, I would like to invite you to explore Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. In the recent years, global tech and financial companies discovered Vilnius and once they are here – they expand very rapidly. These companies are moving their shared services to value based functions like data mining, mobile technology development and IT architecture. Danske bank which just moved their IT service centre for its group of companies is one of the three biggest investors in Lithuania. And a great British success story is Barclays. It has thousands of employees in its Vilnius office and just chose this city for one of their 6 start-up hubs in the world. Vilnius is all about speed: it is the fastest growing city of millennials in the Baltics. The internet speed is fantastic. Lithuania is 1st in the EU in terms of both its broadband speed and fibre-to-premises penetration.

  • Why Party Democracy Is Overhauled by MEP Antanas Guoga Poker
    Terrorism: An Electronic Journal & Knowledge Base | Volume VI, Number 2 | June 2017 Why Party Democracy is Overhauled By MEP Antanas Guoga Poker super star, entrepreneur and multimillionaire, Antanas Guoga, was elected MEP for Lithuania in 2014, in order to serve his country from Brussels. He donates his MEP salary completely for good causes. His lesson from Brexit, the election of Donald Trump in the US and then recent French election are: "We need a representative democracy without political parties. Political parties have created the mediocrity we are now suffering from and which has led to such a disenchantment of the voter with the system. Today we need a re-launch of the 'Senator', as described by Senaca for Rome: serving the Republic for the good and betterment of all, selflessly, without financial interests." Representative democracy lives from its representatives. Ideally, wise and responsibly acting men and women, who have already achieved something in life and have now decided to give something back to society and patriotically serve their country and its people. This is the republican ideal that Seneca imagined and wrote about for their respective societies. Dwight D. Eisenhower famously said: “Politics ought to be the part-time profession of every citizen, who would protect the rights and privileges of free men.” The reality of our democracies today has become another: Politicians are professionals, who often have had no other career and who have served their way up through their respective political parties. Their aim is all too often power and money, yet they also hold a set of beliefs and morals of what makes a good society.

At the conference, Minister Isola provided insight into Gibraltar’s stance on the evolving ICO landscape and the future of block- chain. Commenting on the trip, Minister Isola said, “Our delegation’s recent visit to Lithuania was a pointed success, offering a valuable opportunity to showcase Gibraltar as a leader in the global blockchain sector. It was an honor to represent Gibraltar at the #Switch Conference alongside tal- ented industry experts, and to meet a wide range of leading visionaries, all of whom agree that the future of fintech relies on collaboration, a value that the event espoused. Building relationships with other nations involved in blockchain technology, so that we might better learn from one another, is imperative if Gibraltar as a jurisdiction is to continue to make its mark on the industry.” While in Lithuania, Minister Isola visited the Blockchain Centre Vilnius, where he met with its CEO, Egle Nemeikstyte, along with representatives from several leading Vilnius-based blockchain and cryptocurrency firms.

Photography www.karolesa.lt www.enjoyyourkicks.com [email protected] #enjoyyourkicks #mystory ENJOY YOUR KICKS ANDRIUS KOLESNIKAS AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL NOVEL The story I had to tell. Especially for those who dream. Those who dream and create. Those who create because of dreams. I will never forget the day I purchased my first pair of Nike basketball shoes. The design, quality, and the joy I had by simply wearing them created a special symbiotic relationship. This brand has become a part of who I am. To me, it is not just a brand. It represents stubbornness, breaking the rules, pushing new boundaries, and above all, a passion for creating and moving forward. This is one man's faith in his biggest dream. SUMMER OF 2011 | 11 SUMMER OF 2011 “Hey, sleepyhead, get up, and let’s go!” “I'm going. I'm going...” I replied as I slowly sat up on the edge of the couch and tried to get used to the early morning. Outside the window, the sun had just begun to rise; it was only six o'clock in the morning. My former classmate Minde and I rented a two-room apartment in a suburban neighborhood. It was too expensive for us to rent separate apartments, and I was tired of living in my office. I wanted to have a place to relax after work. The apartment was in a grey nine-story block style apartment building and was completely student-like with a dated, dark brown patio door which had been drawn on, a light brown linoleum floor, and walls covered in brown wallpaper.
