During a three-day seminar organised in Valencia, Spain (24-26 February) within NATO's 50th Anniversary Programme, ways to enhance the NATO Mediterranean Dialogue were discussed.
Were present:
- NATO Secretary General, Dr Javier Solana,
- the 16 NATO Ambassadors, Ambassadors from the three invited countries - the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland - and
- representatives from the six countries currently participating in the Mediterranean Dialogue - Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Mauritania, Morocco and Tunisia.
They put forward suggestions which would make this security dialogue, initiated in 1995, evolve from political discussions to concrete measures such as military cooperation and the establishment of NATO contact points in each participating country.
