Foreign Minister Anže Logar hosted his counterparts from Austria, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia to discuss Slovenia’s upcoming EU presidency and the coronavirus pandemic.
“The meeting was a great opportunity to present our views and priorities for the presidency so as to harmonise key issues that will be on the EU’s agenda within the central European club of countries,” Logar told the press. The Central 5 (C5) foreign ministers spent a fair share of time discussing the coronavirus pandemic. They believe the situation remains serious and encourage facilitation of vaccination efforts. They also expressed support for an EU-wide vaccination certificate.
