Fortomas, the Permanent Representative of Greece to the EU Ambassador I. Vrailas, the Ambassador of Greece to Belgium S. Grammata, the Consul V. Zarbalis, the president of UEF Greece , D Gogou as well as representatives of Greek associations in Belgium and many other participants were also present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The subject of the discussion was the very current dialogue that is taking place about the EU enlargement, the need of Treaty, the abolition of veto and the position of Greece in this context of extremely important changes. The way the EU will deal with these challenges in the near future will determine its very nature.&nbsp;The EU cannot expand without the necessary deepening structural changes, which will give it greater flexibility in the decision-making mechanism, a new dynamism and international power, especially today when the challenges both in the EU and in the international environment are historic. It was also discussed where Greece stands today, in relation to this dialogue about the future of European Union, and its position on future EU enlargements, especially in the Western Balkans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" data-id=\"1344\" src=\"https:\/\/federalists.eu\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/06\/IMG_0656.jpg\" alt=\"- UEF\" class=\"wp-image-1344\" srcset=\"https:\/\/federalists.eu\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/06\/IMG_0656.jpg 320w, https:\/\/federalists.eu\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/06\/IMG_0656-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;69f75eb5d3439&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"69f75eb5d3439\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"320\" height=\"230\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-id=\"1343\" src=\"https:\/\/federalists.eu\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/06\/1a0ae141-4f05-48fb-a0a2-14bb5b1b7f12.jpg\" alt=\"- UEF\" class=\"wp-image-1343\" srcset=\"https:\/\/federalists.eu\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/06\/1a0ae141-4f05-48fb-a0a2-14bb5b1b7f12.jpg 320w, https:\/\/federalists.eu\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/06\/1a0ae141-4f05-48fb-a0a2-14bb5b1b7f12-300x216.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"320\" height=\"184\" data-id=\"1345\" src=\"https:\/\/federalists.eu\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/06\/IMG_0658.jpg\" alt=\"- UEF\" class=\"wp-image-1345\" srcset=\"https:\/\/federalists.eu\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/06\/IMG_0658.jpg 320w, https:\/\/federalists.eu\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/06\/IMG_0658-300x173.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Union of the European Federalists (UEF Greece) \u2013 Brussels and the Permanent Representation of Greece to the European Union organised on 21 May, an event-discussion with the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Alexandra Papadopoulou, on \"The European Dialogue on the EU Deepening and EU Enlargement process and the Foreign Policy of Greece\".
