Pradales has called for territorial cooperation in a global context where "crises and wars are accumulating"
He has stressed that the Euroregion Aquitania-Euskadi-Navarre is an example of integration as a space to "anticipate discussions that will surely reach Europe."
On the day he assumed the presidency of the Eurorregión Nueva Aquitania-Euskadi-Navarra, President Imanol Pradales has proclaimed the model of cooperation represented by the Euroregion, highlighting the role of the Euroregion in a context of global "uncertainty" in which "crises and wars accumulate one after the other" with "consequences that directly affect our lives."
The lehendakari has acknowledged that "curbing global uncertainty" is not up to him or the other members of the Eurorregion, but "our way of reacting" to this situation, and has stressed that its members are "clear" that to deal with this situation it is necessary to "join forces" and cooperate.
Despite the context, Pradales adds, the objective remains the same: "To make cross-border cooperation an effective tool in the service of the citizens, articulating public policies, local dynamics and European funding." "The Eurorregion is much more than an interinstitutional meeting place; it is an initiative that designs, manages, implements and acquires European funding for the benefit of people."
In any case, it has considered it necessary to 'go further' and has stated that it assumes the presidency of this body 'with ambition' in order to 'consolidate the Euroregion as a practice of European integration, strengthen our Atlantic competitiveness and anticipate discussions which will surely reach Europe'.
The event was also attended by the Regional Councillor for the Euroregion, Cross-border Cooperation, Ports and Airports, Mathieu Berge, and the President of the Government of Navarre, Maria Chivite, who today concluded the Presidency of the Euroregion.
Hithium, to Navarre
On the same day that this meeting took place in Vitoria, Chivite himself announced that the Chinese company Hithium, dedicated to the manufacture of batteries and energy storage systems, will be installed in Navarre.
Asked about this issue, Imanol Pradales and Maria Chivite have said that the construction of a battery gigafactory by the Chinese company Hithium in Navarre is "good news" for both communities because it will create "synergies" with suppliers.
