"EU member states and six partner countries have always expressed their commitment to working together," Commissioner for European Neighbourhood Policy and Enlargement Negotiations Johannes Hahn said in Brussels at the opening of the high-level conference dedicated to the tenth anniversary of the Eastern Partnership program.

"The Eastern Partnership is the key to strengthening our mutual relations," said J. Hahn. According to him, the EU member-states and six partner countries have always expressed their commitment to working together.

The Commissioner recalled that the collapse of the USSR created new states with new borders and new opportunities.
