Middle East - EU partnership meetings to start tomorrow

Meetings on the Middle East - European partnership will start tomorrow in Stuttgart, Germany on the experts level to pave the way for the meetings of the Arab foreign ministers on Thursday under the chairmanship of Arab League Secretary General Esmat Abdul Meguid.

Libya is participating in these meetings for the first time after the suspension of UN sanctions.

Egypt presents to the meetings a security cooperation initiative to agree on mechanisms for early alarm and monitoring pollution from dangerous substances, especially poisonous radioactive substances in the area of the Mediterranean Sea basin.

The conference will discuss the peace charter and stability in the Mediterranean Sea to settle disputes, as the charter reflects a comprehensive and balanced concept of security in each country.

The meeting tries to create trust among the Arab and European states as well as discussing conveying technology to countries south of the Mediterranean Sea through financing loans with limited interests.
