Czech Republic Accedes to ESA Convention

  09/07/2008
Jean-Jacques Dordain, Director General of ESA, and Mirek Topolánek, Prime Minister of the Czech Republic have signed an agreement on the Czech Republic's accession to the ESA Convention on the 8th July in Prague.

Since the early 1990s, ESA has negotiated and concluded framework cooperation agreements with a number of central and eastern European countries. The Czech Republic signed such a cooperation agreement with ESA in 1996, requesting more specific collaboration.

In response, the ESA Council created the status of 'European Cooperating State' in March 2001. The ECS was a new status granted to European Union Member States wishing to accede to the ESA Convention. ESA concluded an ECS Agreement with the Czech Republic in November 2003; it entered into force with the signing of the PECS (Plan for European Cooperating States) Charter in November 2004.

 

The Czech Republic is now embarking on the ratification procedure that will make it a formal ESA Member State by the end of the year.
