The European Union Troika current Presidency
Slovenia, future Presidency France and the European
Commission would visit Sri Lanka next week, a
Foreign Ministry press release said (March 13).
This year, Sri Lanka and the European Union
celebrate 35 years since the establishment of
diplomatic relations. The two sides will seek to
further strengthen the bilateral relationship.
With this in view, Sri Lanka and the European Union
have agreed to convene the 7th European
Commission-Sri Lanka Joint Commission on 10th and
11th of June 2008 in Colombo.
While the Joint Commission meeting to be held in
June will focus on continuing bilateral cooperation,
the Troika meeting will cover a wide range of issues
including the political process and the APRC,
Eastern Province development, combating terrorism,
strengthening human rights, GSP+, global warming and
climate change, and Carbon debt.
