Central European Perspectives on the Future of Europe - Part III

Hungary, the Visegrad Group and the European Union

The crises that have affected the European Union over the last ten years have put the European ambition to the test. After the migration crisis and Brexit, the European Union is now facing an unprecedented pandemic and the return of geopolitical tensions in its immediate neighbourhood. The need for concerted action, guided by a common vision, is necessary more than ever.

To respond to these challenges, Institut Montaigne and the Austrian-French Center for Rapprochement in Europe (ÖFZ/CFA) are organizing a series of webinars dedicated to the Visegrad Group. The aim of this series is to shed light on the perspectives of Central and Eastern Europe, and to examine more specifically how Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia see the role of the Visegrad Group in shaping tomorrow's Europe.

The third conference will be dedicated to Hungary and will be held on March 4 at 3:00pm.

On this occasion, we will welcome:

• Karoline Edtstadler, Minister for the EU and Constitution, Federal Chancellery of the Austrian Republic, Vienna
• Oszkár Ökrös, State Secretary for EU Affairs, Ministry of Justice, Budapest
• Bernard Guetta, Member of the European Parliament, Brussels

Discussions will be moderated by Hans Dietmar Schweisgut, Secretary General of the ÖFZ/CFA.
