EUalive, the pan-European media network, is pleased to host a timely conference entitled

“Micro-States and EU Association: Is Now the Right Time?”

The conference will examine the unresolved challenges surrounding the Association Agreements with Andorra and San Marino – two micro-states whose agreements with the European Union are expected to be put to a vote in the European Parliament shortly.

Speakers

–          Gérard Vespirerre, researcher, author on the report on micro-states in the EU

–          Dick Roche, former Irish minister for European Affairs

–          Assen Christov, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Eurohold

–          Maria Bacciocchi, attorney-at-law admitted to the Bar of the Republic of San Marino

Bringing together leading scholars specialising in micro-states, representatives from Andorra and San Marino directly involved in addressing outstanding issues, Members of the European Parliament, diplomats, journalists, and other key stakeholders, the event aims to foster an open and informed discussion on the opportunities, risks, and timing of deeper EU integration for these small sovereign entities.

All interested parties are warmly invited to attend.
