EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region

The EUSBSR was adopted by the Commission in June 2009 and endorsed by the European Council in October 2009. The overall roles and responsibilities of the multiple actors involved in the Strategy are described in the joint declaration signed by ministers from the eight EU Member States of the Baltic Sea Region in Stockholm in September 2009, and in the General Affairs Council Conclusions adopted on 27 October 2009.

The Declaration and Conclusions confirm the strong commitment by the Member States to the implementation of the Strategy. The Commission is invited to coordinate, to facilitate, to disseminate and to report on the actions undertaken by the Member States and the associated stakeholders, in accordance with the subsidiarity principle. The Strategy documents and more information about its preparation and the implementation process can be found on the EUSBSR website.
