Three Seas Initiative – a priority for the Czech

15 November 2021

Petr Fiala from the Civic Democratic Party will be the new Prime Minister of the Czech Republic. A month after the election, President Milos Zeman asked Fiala to form the government. Fiala has already announced that the priority of the Czech government will be to develop cooperation with the Three Seas Initiative.

Relations with the United States and partnership with Israel will be important for coalition members. Diplomacy priorities also include the European Union and NATO. The Czech want to be an active participant of the Eastern Partnership and support the UE ambitions of the Western Balkan states. It may be expected that these will be the priorities of the Czech presidency in the EU in the second half of 2022.

According to the coalition agreement, the international cooperation forums are to be the Visegrad Group and the Three Seas Initiative, which foreshadows openness for regional cooperation. In the light of recent events on the Polish-Lithuanian- Belarussian borders, we may notice that the Czech government expects from Brussels effective protection of the external EU borders. The support is to include among others: fight against human trafficking, effective policy of sending immigrants back and solving migration problems in the origin and transit states.

The agreement stipulates that the new government will review relations with Russia and China. Russia has been still indicated as the most serious threat for NATO. It is important because recently the American have made an attempt to reorient the Alliance towards China, which is contrary to the expectations of the states of eastern flank. South Korea, Japan and Taiwan are the states that the new government wants to strengthen relations with.

The 6th edition of the Three Seas Local Government Congress will take place May 27-28, 2026, in Lublin. It is a forum that brings together the visions, experience, and potential of the Central and Eastern European countries.

The Three Seas Local Government Congress is a prestigious international event organised by the Lubelskie Voivodeship. The Congress serves as a platform for cooperation among 13 countries of the Three Seas Initiative and associated members (Ukraine, Moldova, Albania, and Montenegro), focusing on infrastructure development, security, innovation, and cross-border cooperation. Over the past five editions, the Congress has gathered more than 5000 participants from over 25 countries, including representatives of governments, local and regional authorities, business, and academia. The event is held under the Honorary Patronage of the President of the Republic of Poland. Representatives of more than 350 regions from the Three Seas Initiative are invited to attend the Congress. It is a multidimensional event. Its accompanying activities include the Economic Forum, a scientific session of the Three Seas Universities Network, and the 3Seas Youth Forum. The upcoming edition of the Congress will be expanded to include a Security Forum addressed to local governments from the Three Seas region.

The Economic Forum comprehensively supports the offer of SMEs from the Lubelskie Voivodeship.
