Slovakia's Presidency of the V4 will continue to build upon the results achieved during previous Presidencies.

The main priorities of Slovakia's V4 Presidency:

1.	to make V4 a dynamic regional forum within the EU;

I. The Foreign Policy and European Dimensions of Visegrad Cooperation
Responsible Institution: Ministry of Foreign Affairs

The objectives of Slovakia's V4 Presidency, with regard to foreign policy and European dimensions, involve cooperation with the Benelux, Baltic and Nordic Council countries and joint activities relating to Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova and the countries of the Western Balkans – which will be a fitting accompaniment to EU initiatives carried out within the framework of the European Neighbourhood Policy and the Stabilisation and Association Process.

	The Slovak Presidency will endeavour to coordinate the activities of V4 countries with regard to support for bringing Ukraine closer to the EU and NATO. It will draw upon the International Visegrad Fund to support the studies of Ukrainian students and doctoral students at schools in V4 countries.

The Slovak Presidency of the V4 will also endeavour to coordinate the exchange of information concerning the planned measures and activities of individual V4 countries in Belarus (in areas such as culture, education, science, economy, etc.) and to promote cooperation in order that they will be realised and presented as joint V4 activities.

In accordance with the joint declaration approved by the foreign ministers of V4 countries, Austria and Slovenia and of the Western Balkan countries at a ministerial conference concerning the Western Balkans held in Budapest on 11 October 2005, the Slovak Presidency of the V4 will make an effort to enhance the V4's activities with regard to the Western Balkan region. It will make sure that these activities – both in the region itself and within the EU as a whole – contribute to and complement the programmes of corresponding EU Presidencies, especially with regard to advancing the Stabilisation and Association Process, and the successful resolution of unresolved regional issues. The results of cooperation with Western Balkan countries will be assessed by Foreign Ministers of the V4, Austria and Slovenia and the Western Balkan countries at regular yearly joint meetings.

If the EU's period of reflection continues beyond June 2006, the Slovak Presidency will initiate an exchange of opinions between the V4 countries concerning the EU's future direction, the EU's global role and the opportunities for more efficient regional cooperation within the EU itself.

The Slovak Presidency of the V4 will strive for improvement of the effectiveness of discussions – on both a working and political level – in the areas of the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) and the European Security and Defence Policy (ESDP). It will focus on unifying the standpoints of V4 countries concerning the fundamental issues of the EU's approach to these areas. V4 supports the ESDP development as a strengthening of transatlantic security relations.

	A greater level of coordination is required with regard to the candidatures of V4 countries to European institutions on the highest political level. Slovakia's Presidency will endeavour to initiate consultations on candidatures within the framework of the V4 before they are submitted to the EU. Consultations will focus primarily on institutional candidatures and in the event of progress in this area on the coordination of personal candidatures.

The Slovak Presidency will continue to support the activities of the V4 working group for EU language policy with the aim of opening up a political and expert discussion on multilingualism, international communication and other related linguistic issues based on broad (legal) analyses within the enlarged EU. Results of the activities carried out in the working group will be presented at a ministerial meeting. 

With regard to Slovakia's non-permanent membership of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) in 2006 – 2007: the Slovak Republic is keen to inform its V4 partners about the Council's activities and to pay great attention to their opinions and standpoints.

	The Slovak Presidency will coordinate effort in the V4 format to create legal frame for providing of official development aid  (adopting law on development aid on national level) and its institutionalisation (creating development agencies in the V4 countries). 

	The collective membership of V4 countries in the OECD Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (FATF), an intergovernmental organisation, may help overcome the hostility of overseas FATF members to the preponderance of EU countries in the Task Force. For this reason the Slovak Presidency of the V4 will try to achieve this objective.

The Slovak V4 Presidency will continue to support non-enlargement of the V4; on the other hand it will also fully support further cooperation along the lines of the "V4+" format.
