Focus on the Minority SafePack at DialogForumNorden
17.02.2017On the invitation of Renate Schnack, the Schleswig Holstein Minority Commissioner, a meeting of DialogForumNorden (DFN) took place on Thursday 16 February 2017. The main topic of discussion was the positive judgment of the European Court of Justice on the Minority SafePack Initiative (MSPI). For minority issues on the level of the EU but also for the majorities this judgment is a great success.
Ms Schnack was very pleased to be able to welcome both FUEN President Loránt Vincze and the Representative of the MSPI Hans Heinrich Hansen. The DFN, which is the cross-border dialogue forum consisting of the minorities and the authorities in Schleswig Holstein and South Denmark offered its support in the following stages of the citizens’ initiative.
