Atlantic Arc Commission

The Basque Premier once again calls for a “strong Atlantic area” to face major challenges / El Lehendakari reivindica de nuevo un “espacio atlántico fuerte” que permita afrontar los grandes desafíos

Posted on June 4, 2022August 16, 2022 by info

Iñigo Urkullu inaugurates the General Assembly of the Atlantic Arc Commission in which the Basque Country will renew its presidency for another two years.

Iñigo Urkullu inaugura la Asamblea General de la Comisión Arco Atlántico en la que Euskadi va a renovar la presidencia por otros dos años

The Basque Premier has once again demanded “a strong Atlantic area” that allows to continue facing the current challenges, while he has claimed -as he did seven years ago- “a definitive boost” to the Atlantic Corridor. Iñigo Urkullu opened the General Assembly held these days in San Sebastian by the Atlantic Arc Commission, in which the Basque Country will renew for another two years the presidency it has held since 2020. 

In the plenary session, Urkullu shared with the rest of the attendees the document Euskadi Before the Conference on the Future of Europe, which reflects the vision of the Basque Country on the European Union and includes the Basque contribution, based on its model of sustainable human development. As he explained, the document makes effective proposals for the reform of the Treaties and claims the value of sub-state, regional or national governments in a better and richer governance of the European Union.

On this occasion, the Assembly is framed by the serious crises caused by the pandemic and the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and a globalized context characterized by a sharp increase in prices -especially energy prices-, a shortage of supply of raw materials and insecurity in political and trade relations. On these bases, the Atlantic Arc Commission has been working to achieve a balanced development of the Atlantic territories through the promotion of the blue economy, transport and marine renewable energies and all those sectors related to smart specialization.

Milestones of the Basque Presidency

The Assembly will review the most important milestones of the Presidency of the Basque Country during the last two years, including: the approach to the mandate of the Council to the European Commission for the configuration of an Atlantic Macroregion; the contribution to the implementation of the Atlantic Maritime Strategy and its new Action Plan; the use of funding opportunities for the Atlantic territories; and greater visibility of the Atlantic Arc Commission at international and European level.

Finally, the Assembly will vote on a Political Declaration which, among other issues, reaffirms the commitment to the values of freedom, human rights and democracy; advocates the promotion of a sustainable blue economy; stresses multilevel governance as essential to preserve the Atlantic territories; and reiterates the demand to the Member States concerned to accelerate the process for the implementation of an Atlantic maritime macro-region.

El Lehendakari ha vuelto a reivindicar “un espacio atlántico fuerte” que permita seguir haciendo frente a los retos actuales, al tiempo que ha reclamado -al igual que hace siete años- “un impulso definitivo” al Corredor Atlántico. Iñigo Urkullu ha inaugurado la Asamblea General que celebra estos días en Donostia la Comisión Arco Atlántico, en la que Euskadi va a renovar por otros dos años la presidencia que ya ostenta desde 2020. 

Ya en la sesión plenaria, el Lehendakari ha compartido con el resto de asistentes el documento Euskadi ante la conferencia sobre el futuro de Europa, que plasma la visión de Euskadi sobre la Unión Europea y recoge la contribución vasca, basada en su modelo de desarrollo humano sostenible. Según ha explicado, el documento hace propuestas efectivas de reforma de los Tratados y reivindica el valor de los Gobiernos subestatales, regionales o nacionales, en una mejor y más rica gobernanza de la Unión Europea.

En esta ocasión, la Asamblea viene enmarcada por las graves crisis originadas por la pandemia y por la invasión de Ucrania por parte de Rusia y un contexto globalizado caracterizado por un fuerte incremento de los precios -sobre todo los energéticos-,  una escasez de suministro de materias primas y una inseguridad en las relaciones políticas y comerciales. Sobre estas bases, la Comisión Arco Atlántico viene trabajando para lograr un desarrollo equilibrado de los territorios atlánticos mediante el impulso de la economía azul, los transportes y las energías renovables marinas y todos aquellos sectores relacionados con la especialización inteligente. 

Hitos de la presidencia vasca 

En la Asamblea se repasarán los hitos más importantes de la Presidencia de Euskadi durante estos dos últimos años, entre los que destacan: el acercamiento al mandato del Consejo a la Comisión Europea para la configuración de una Macrorregión Atlántica; la contribución a la aplicación de la Estrategia Marítima Atlántica y su nuevo Plan de Acción; el aprovechamiento de las oportunidades de financiación para los territorios atlánticos; y una mayor visibilidad de la Comisión Arco Atlántico a escala internacional y europea. 

Finalmente, la Asamblea votará una Declaración Política que, entre otras cuestiones, reafirma el compromiso con los valores de la libertad, los derechos humanos y la democracia; aboga por el impulso de la economía azul sostenible; remarca la gobernanza multinivel como esencial para preservar los territorios atlánticos; y reitera la demanda a los Estados miembros concernidos a acelerar el proceso para la puesta en marcha de una Macrorregión marítima atlántica.
