Commissioner Samecki presented this Orientation Paper at the Second Meeting of the "High Level Group Reflecting on the Future of Cohesion Policy" held in Brussels, 3 December 2009
Extract from Commissioner´s Samecki´s Speech - Zoom on Territorial Cooperation:
"Border regions still offer high unexploited potential. Unleashing this potential will require reinforcement in the scale and a shift in the nature of territorial cooperation. The approach of the functional macro-regions, like the example of the EU Baltic Sea Strategy and the Danube basin deserves further examination. Growing challenges of migration and security, and the need to promote economic integration, while addressing shared environmental concerns, call for increased cooperation with Europe's neighbourhood".
