The Danish Minister for European Affairs Nicolai Wammen told a press conference in Brussels that Denmark has taken over the most difficult term-presidency of the EU so far, due to the ongoing effects of the global economic crisis.<\/p>\n
He said the European cohesion policy in terms of economic growth is among their priorities.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Denmark, which is not participating in the pillar of the EU Security and Defense Policy, will allow South Cyprus, which will take over the next term-presidency as from July 2012, to undertake duties arising from the pillar in advance.<\/p>\n
The scope of authority of the Greek Cypriot Administration will include EU peace forces based in Bosnia, where motherland Turkey, as a NATO member, also has its troops deployed.<\/p>\n
Turkey is now considering to withdraw its military force from the region or to keep the number to minimum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
