Around 80 policy planners and diplomats from NATO member and Partner countries will meet in Durres, Albania, on 10 and 11 May, to discuss longer term security challenges and prospects for the Alliance and its partnership relations.
This annual meeting of the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council (EAPC) in Atlantic Policy Advisory Group (APAG) session is an informal meeting without a fixed agenda.
Topics for discussion will likely include the integration of the Western Balkans into the Euro-Atlantic community of nations, the deepening and broadening of NATO’s partnership relations, and the challenge of ensuring public support for security cooperation.
Ambassador Martin Erdmann, NATO’s Assistant Secretary General for Political Affairs and Security Policy and Chairman of the EAPC/APAG said the annual talks were important to exchange views, build consensus and foster cooperation.
“For the past 15 years APAG meetings with partners have been valuable opportunities for off-the-record political discussions with and between our partner countries, in addition to the practical cooperation that we engage in,” he said.
Prime Minister Sali Berisha of Albania will give the opening keynote presentation at the meeting, and Foreign Minister Lulzim Basha will host a dinner.
Last year’s EAPC/APAG meeting took place in Dubrovnik, Croatia.
