CONFERINTA DE LA BUCURESTI : UN SUCCES CLAR SI O VOCE IN SPRIJINUL REFORMEI OSCE.

Conferinta asupra Organizatiei pentru Securitate si Cooperare in Europa ( OSCE) 2010 a fost gandita de la inceput ca un raspuns al societatii civile , al expertilor in politica internationala si al figurilor politice de talie europeana, la adresa planurilor de reforma lansate de Presedintia Organizatiei pentru Securitate si Cooperare in  Europa a Kazahstanului. Conferinta de la Bucuresti, din 24 februarie, realizata sub patronajul Institutului de Relatii Internationale si Cooperare Economica , a Misiunii Diplomatice a Kazahstanului si a Consiliului European pentru Relatii Internationale a fost un raspuns al structurilor europene la propunerile importante lansate de Presedintele Kazahstanului , Nursultan Nazarbaev,  in discursul sau de la Viena. Acest discurs solicita un raspuns european , global  , la criza de structura a OSCE.

Conferinta dela Bucuresti asupra OSCE a fost un semnal clar al seriozitatii cu care este privit OSCE-ul , ca un actor puternic,  nu doar cu o lunga istorie,  dar si cu un rol potential extrem de important, in viitor ,in cadrul evolutiilor mondiale. Toti vorbitorii au subliniat sprijinul lor pentru viziunea Presedintelui Nazarbaev potrivit careia” OSCE-ul este o organizatie care nu poate fi inlocuita . Stagnarea sa sau disparitia sa ar creata un vacuum nesigur in zona Euro-Atlantica”. Fostul Presedinte al Romaniei, Emil Constantinescu declara ca: „Marea contribuţie a OSCE la arhitectura de securitate a Europei şi a lumii va fi, fără îndoială, aceea a războaielor care nu vor fi avut loc datorită creării unor mecanisme democratice şi de dialog, întăririi colaborării cu societatea civilă, diplomaţiei preventive. Mai este nevoie de OSCE? Da. Pentru ce? Pentru o lume mai sigură. Pentru cine? Pentru toţi.”

Fostul presedinte Ion Iliescu a pus accent in cuvantarea sa pe necesitatea ca OSCE sa creioneze o noua realitate economica dupa prabusirea comunismului si criza societatii capitaliste . Globalizarea insasi este pusa sub semnul intrebarii si OSCE- ul poate deveni forumul care sa construiasca un nou model de integrare economica impletind spijinirea tarilor sarace cu respectul fata de natiuni . Conferinta de la Bucuresti a fost declarata ca locul unde toti cei ce reprezinta o voce importanta  in domeniul dezbaterii politice internationale si-a putut exprima vederile sale in domeniul viitorului OSCE. Au fost prezentate rapoarte extrem de variate de la OSCE si securitatea umana ( Prof. Mircea Constantinescu ) , OSCE la rascruce de drumuri( Prof. Anton Caragea ) , OSCE si solutiile la criza economica mondiala     ( Prof. Ioan Cezar Coraci )  , OSCE si mediul ( deputat Catalin Nechifor ), toate au oferit o evaluare competa  a realitatilor prezentului si al viitorului rol al OSCE.

Conferinta de la Bucuresti despre OSCE in 2010 a fost un succes pentru Romania care si-a asumat un rol conducator in dezbaterea intelectuala si diplomatica asupra reformei OSCE si a fost capabila sa organizeze o conferinta grandioasa offerind planului Kazahstanului de reformare a OSCE sprijinul intelectual necesar. In final o alta premiera a fost aceea ca Intalnirea de la Bucuresti a fost unica organizata pana acum in Uniunea Europeana la un asemenea nivel demonstrand capacitatea romaniei de initiativa europeana.

In concluzie Conferinta despre OSCE 2010. Un an decisiv pentru Europa . Presedintia Kazahstan. a fost un clar success , indeplinindu-si rolul de dezbatere larga, inclusiva si cu caracter european asupra viitorului OSCE. Raspunsul academic si intelectual al Romaniei si  Europei a fost unul plin de energie si de sustinere a viziunii Kazahstanului de reformare a OSCE . Acum, ca portile Conferintei de la Bucuresti sau inchis si un raspuns european , diplomatic si academic a fost dat la propunerea de reformare a OSCE  ,este timpul unei actiuni decisive in anul care va fi decisiv pentru Europa. Anul 2010- anul presedintiei Kazahstanului .

“Avem aspiratii inalte si respect profund fata de fiinta umana”

Interviurealizat de prof.univ.dr. Anton Caragea, cu Excelenta Salem Al-Jaber, ambassador al Statului Qatar in Romania.

Intrebare: Care este stadiul actual al relatiilor bilaterale dintre Statul Qatar si Romania?

Raspuns: Este evident faptul ca relatiile dintre tari sunt guvernate atat de considerente politice, economice cat si de alti factori legati de comunicarea culturala si de conjunctura internationala. Statul Qatar a fost primul stat , membru al Consiliului de Cooperare a tarilor Golfului, care a stabilit relatii diplomatice cu Romania in anul 1990 si am fost de asemenea primul stat membru al acestui organism , care si-a deschis o ambasada la Bucuresti, in anul 1996, restul tarilor din zona Golfului incepand sa deschida ambasade la Bucuresti in ultimii cinci ani.
Qatarul si Romania au semnat o serie de acorduri bilaterale si au purtat negocieri in domenii precum apararea, incurajarea investitiilor, interzicerea dublei impozitari, si au cooperat in domenii cum ar fi sanatatea, educatia, cultura, pe linga cele legate de tineret si sport. De asemenea exista un consiliu al oamenilor de afaceriromano-qatarez ce prezinta un cadru esential pentru orice cooperare fructuoasa intre cele doua tari. Mai exista de asemenea un acord intre Universitatea Bucuresti si cea din Doha, iar anul trecut s-a deschis la Bucuresti un biroual Cailor Aeriene Qatareze. De asemenea Banca din Doha si-a inceput de curand activitatea la Bucuresti, aceasta fiind o institutie bancara respectabila ce speram ca va juca un rol important pe piata bancara din Romania.
Am depus deja eforturi considerabile pentru imbunatatirea conditiilor cetatenilor romani ce muncesc in Doha, in prezent lucrand aici mai bine de 1.500 de muncitori romani in santiere petroliere si de exploatare a gazului, in turism, companiiaeriene, sistemul hotelier, spitale, etc. Speram ca pe viitor sa fim martorii unui progres important in ceea ce priveste relatiile bilaterale si totodata ne punem mari sperante in viitorul unei cooperari mai extinse.

Intrebare: Care sunt proiectele actuale si de viitor de colaborare intre cele doua tari ?

Raspuns: Dupa cum stiti Qatarul este o tara producatoare si exportatoare de energie, ce ocupa locul trei la nivel mondial in ceea ce priveste rezervele de gaze naturale, ce ating 25 de trilioane de metri cubi de gaze. tara noastra pune bazele unui plan extins de dezvoltare, caruia i s-au alocat deja mai bine de 110 miliarde de dolari de-a lungul a cinci ani. Este deci normal ca relatia de cooperare sa se concentreze asupra domeniilor energiei si a resurselor umane. S-au intreprins studii si cercetari cu privire la exportarea gazului qatarez in Romania, in cadrul unui proiect indraznet, in privinta caruia speram ca cele doua tari sa fie de acord, pentru a servi ambelor interese.

De asemenea, Qatarul este interesat de firmele romanesti cu experienta in domeniu, in vederea participarii lor la procesul extins de dezvoltare si modernizare in toate domeniile, pe modelul firmelor straine ce activeaza la noi in tara. Economia qatareza este capabila sa primeasca un aflux de investitii straine si mana de lucru calificata, in conditiile in care in ultimii trei ani produsul intern brut a crescut cu 31%.
Ne ocupam si cu buna organizare a congreselor si conferintelor internationale si exista o colaborare pe mai multe planuri, exemplu fiind participarea Romaniei la Expozitia Internationala de Carte de la Doha sau a numeroaselor ansambluri folclorice romanesti la festivalurile organizate in Qatar. Ba mai mult, personalitati politice si academice recunoscute din Romania au participat la Congresul Anual pentru Democratie si Comert Liber, iar pe parcursul anilor trecuti numerosi scriitori si jurnalisti romani au vizitat Qatarul, toate acestea contribuind la intarirea contactului dintre cele doua popoare.

Intrebare: Care este locul Statului Qatar pe harta internationala?

Raspuns: Suntem o tara mica, din punct de vedere al suprafetei si al numarului de locuitori, insa avem aspiratii inalte si o mai mare prezenta in politica zonala si in cea araba din momentul preluarii de catre Alteta Sa Sheikh Hamad Ben Khalifa a conducerii tarii, in anul 1996. Noi ne-am bazat pana acum in construirea politicii noastre interne si externe pe principii ce pornesc din respectul profund pentru fiinta umana, pentru demnitatea si libertatile sale si pentru faptul de a fi scopul si mijlocul de realizare a propriului progres si a propriei bunastari. Ne-am asumat obligatia ca relatiile noastre externe sa fie construite pe baza respectului reciproc, a dialogului si a cooperarii, care de altfel sunt in interesul tuturor statelor si popoarelor, cu credinta in necesitatea respingerii violentei si apelului la dialog in cazul aplanarii disputelor.
Noi am urmat o politica clara si cunoscuta de toata lumea, la baza careia sta distanta luata fata de axele politice si fata de conflictele din zona, dar in acelasi timp armonizarea cu cerintele internationale legitime si respingerea recurgerii la forta in aplanarea disputelor. Filosofia preventiva a diplomatiei este construita cu acceptarea justetii parteneriatului cu aliatii si asumarea rolului in promovarea pacii iar in ansamblul ei, se bazeaza pe o viziune clara. in acelasi timp Doha s-a transformat in cea mai importanta capitala din zona, in ceea ce priveste congresele internationale si zonale, partile aflate in conflict nefiind nevoite sa plateasca costul exorbitant al acestei obligatii, caci plata face parte din responsabilitatea noastra ca civilizatie, o responsabilitate internationala, umanitara, si morala.
Am intreprins pasi importanti in punerea bazelor democratiei si a statului de drept, precum si ale institutiilor si libertatii de expresie, respectand in acelasi timp cultura si traditiile societatii, oferind bunastare tuturor si garantand cerintele progresului stiintific. Detinem o retea a celor mai renumite universitati arabe din lume si avem si un interes sporit in extinderea ariei sportive si in protectia copiilor si a tinerilor, ca scop si mijloc de dezvoltare sociala. Cetateanul qatarez se bucura de cel mai inalt venit mediu pe cap de locuitor din lume, datorita unei utilizarii exemplare a resurselor naturale si umane.
Avem ferma credinta ca Dumnezeu Prea-inaltul si mesajele sale ceresti vor ramane pe veci sursa dragostei, a fraternitatii si a pacii in intreaga lume.

QUESTION: What are the present and future projects of cooperation between the two countries?
ANSWER: As you know Qatar is a country that imports and exports energy, placed on the third position in the world for its natural gas deposits of 25 trillion cubic meters. Our country set up an extended development plan, for which it allotted more than 110 billions dollars over the last 5 years. So it is obvious that the cooperation relation should focus on the energetic and public relation domain. Surveys and analyses have been made on the export of Qatar natural gas to Romania on an enterprising program which hopefully will be accepted by both countries on a common interest
Qatar is also interested in the Romanian experienced companies in order to participate to the process of development and modernization in all the domains, following the foreign companies model that are present in our country. Qatar’s economy is able to get a great amount of foreign investments and qualified labor force, taking into account that the GDP increased by 31%.
We are also managing the international congresses and conferences and there is a good cooperation on more levels, an example being Romania’s participation to the International Book Exhibition from Doha or the various Romanian Folk assemblies participation to the Festivals organized in Qatar. Famous Romanian political and academic personalities took part in the Annual Congress for Democracy and Free Trade. Romanian writers and journalists who visited Qatar also contributed to a better cooperation between the two countries.
Question: What’s Qatar’s status on the international scene?
Answer: Romania is a small country referring to its area and population, but we have important goals and we are more active in the zonal and Arabic politics since his Highness Sa Sheikh Hamad ben Khalifa became the Head of State in 1996. So far we have built our internal and external policy on principles based on a profound respect for the human being, for his dignity and freedom. He is the purpose and the tool to achieve the own progress and welfare. We considered as our responsibility to settle the external relations on the base of the mutual respect, of dialogue and cooperation, which are, after all, for the benefit of all the states that believe in the rejection of violence and the necessity of the dialog to avoid conflicts.
We followed the path of clear and open politics known by everybody, based on the distance taken from any political directions and from the conflicts in the area and at the same time the harmonization with the international trends and the denial of violence use in settling conflicts. A preventive philosophy of diplomacy is built on the conviction of a partnership with the allies and assuming the role in promoting peace and, on the whole, it is based on a clear vision. At the same time Doha turned itself into the safest capital in the area, regarding the international and zonal congresses; parties involved in the conflict needn’t pay the huge price of this duty, because payment is a part of our responsibility as civilization, an international, humanitarian and moral responsibility.
We followed these steps to lay the basis for democracy and for a democratic state, as well as for the institutions and the freedom to express yourself, respecting, at the same time, the culture and the traditions of the society, offering welfare to everybody and a guarantee for the scientific progress. We own the network of the best Arabic universities in the world and we have a great interest in extending the sports area and in the children and young people protection program which we see as means for social development. The Qatar citizen has the highest average income in the world due to a terrific use of the natural and human resources in the world.
We have the belief that the Good Lord and his heavenly messages will eternally remain the source of love, fraternity and peace all over the world.

At 7 -th Natural Gas Conference in Doha H.H. the Emir of State of Qatar Sheikh Hamad Bin Khalifa Al Thani offered suprising solutions to the world energy crisis.

La cea de a 7-a Conferinta asupra gazelor naturale din Doha, Emirul satului Qatar Seicul Hamad Bin Khalifa Al Thani a oferit solutii surprinzatoare la problemele energetice globale.

Cea de a 7-a conferinta asupra Gazului Natural de la Doha.

In cadrul conferintei desfasurate  pe 9 martie 2009 in Doha, capitala Qatarului Alteta sa Emirul Qatarului a expus pozitia tarii sale ( principalul exporator de gaz lichefiat  al lumii in privinta crizei energetice si a metodelor de iesire din actuala situatie dificila in care ne aflam).Datorita importantei pentru economia  Romaniei, ca si  pentru economia mondiala a declaratiilor Emirului statului Qatar va prezentam cateva selectiuni din discursul sau si va punem la dispozitie si varianta integrala in engleza a acestuia.

˝Acum scena s-a schimbat complet fata de ultimii ani, in conditiile in care comertul cu gaze naturale a fost martorul unei cresteri continue, in raspuns la cresterea cererii de energie, in special pentru energie curata. Cererea masiva a venit in mod particular din America de Nord, Europa de Vest si Asia. Acest fenomen a incurajat multe tari, cu rezerve de gaz natural pentru comercializare, sa investeasca in extractia de gaz si in proiecte de export a acestuia.  Statul Qatar a jucat un rol de pionier in dezvoltarea proiectelor de lichefiere a gazelor. Mai multi factori au contribuit la a aduce statul Qatar in varful listei tarilor exportatoare de gaz lichefiat. Intre acesti factori putem enumera rezervele naturale descoperite de gaz ce ating aproape 900 de trilioane de metri cubi, ca si climatul de incurajare a investitiilor, mediul de  business flexibil si stabilitatea politica.(…)

Astfel in mai putin de un deceniu statul Qatar a putut deveni cel mai mare exportator de gaz lichefiat din lume.  Industria gazelor din Qatar a atins un nivel inalt de integrare incepand cu productia, procesarea si lichefierea pana la transportul  in gigantice vapoare pentru  gaz lichefiat si terminale de receptie ceea ce ne ofera un avantaj semnificativ si ne va permite sa ne mentinem angajamentele fata de importatorii nostrii (….)  In ultimul an lumea  a fost martora celei mai grave crize economice din 1930, criza financiara care a ravasit economia SUA, cea mai mare economie a lumii, si curand dupa aceea intreaga lume, ducand la nasterea unei recesiuni economice care nu va ocoli nici-o tara(..) aici este important sa reiteram ca sectorul in dezvoltare al energiei, in mod particular cel al gazului, care necesita importante investitii, in toate etapele sale de la productie, procesare, lichefiere si export, necesita investitii corespunzatoare si mai ales un pret care sa incurajeze si sa justifice astfel de investitii si care sa fie corect atat fata de tarile exportatoare cat si fata de tarile  importatoare. Aceasta si din cauza ca in ciuda tuturor eforturilor facute de noi si de ceilalti exportatori de gaz, costurile au ramas ridicate˝. ( Alteta sa Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, emir al statului Qatar )
