Romania has taken over the Presidency of the European Union Strategy for the Danube Region (EUSDR), a mandate it will hold until 31 October 2019.
Process requires political and technical approaches, as well as increasing visibility of the Strategy for the Danube Region by promoting successful national and regional projects, Romanian Minister-Delegate for European Affairs, Victor Negrescu said. Romania aims at re-launching these strategies during its one year EUSDR Presidency, he added.
EU Strategy for the Danube Region (EUSDR) is one of the four macro-strategies at EU level, co-initiated by Romania and Austria, launched in 2011, representing a cooperation mechanism for the states in the Danube region, intended for the economic, social, and territorial development of the Danube macro-region. Fourteen states participate in the EU Strategy for the Danube Region: nine EU Member States (Austria, Romania, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Croatia, Germany – as a federal state and through the lands of Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria, Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary), and five non-EU member states (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Serbia, the Republic of Moldova, and Ukraine).
