We remind you that, following the Baltic Sea Strategy that was officially launched on 10 June 2009, the Danube Strategy officially took off on 19 June 2009 when the European Council invited the Commission to develop a strategy for the area around the Danube. The Danube Strategy should be finalised by December 2010 and launched in early 2011 under the Hungarian Presidency of the EU. The next 12 months will be dedicated to the definition of the main pillars, types of actions envisaged, identification of flagship projects and coordination of existing initiatives.
