Maria Theresia stage - Day 2, 10.10 - 11.10

9th June 2020 marked the 20th anniversary of the International Visegrad Fund, set up to promote regional cooperation in Central Europe and between the V4 and other countries. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the value of the positive neighbourhood and cross-border relations, with Slovakia, Czechia, Hungary, Poland, and Austria working together by choice as much as by necessity. Can this close cooperation maintain its momentum and strengthen Visegrad cooperation in the long-term? In what ways can the V4 countries cooperate to ensure that the post-pandemic recovery period benefits the region in monetary as well as structural areas? And what needs to be done to firmly embed the V4 perspective into policymaking on the EU level, on European and global matters?

Speakers:
H.E. Ivan Korčok, Minister of Foreign and European Affairs of the Slovak Republic
H.E. Tomáš Petříček, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic
H.E. Péter Szijjártó, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade of Hungary
H.E. Zbigniew Rau, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Poland

Led by:
Sylvie Kauffmann, Editorial Director & Columnist, Le Monde, Paris
