Situation in the Ukraine**\\ Taking political statements is always problematic, because we are an executive organ. Anyway we did in the past.\\ Mikuláš is talking about last public speech of Russian President: his feeling is that we should consider to have a statement that condams the violation of International laws.\\ Bastian:\\ I am in favour of discussing the Ukraine problem. But then we should also discuss the whole world order, because the Ukraine problem is only a symptom.\\ In my opinion, completely unsuitable for a board meeting.\\ We can invite to a PPEU-wide discussion.\\ But we should write a blogpost, because international law has been questioned.\\ Alessandro:\\ I second Bastian comment and be more focus on the problem that this issue is putting on European playground\\ Jan is talking about his experience and showing a map that represent the complicated situation of Ukraine history\\ Cédric would like to second Jan\\ Florie:\\ I would propose not to have a statement right now but make a proposal for a statement\\ Bastian:\\ We can open a pad a try to make a statement, but we can't discuss with all members\\ Vote:\\ - should we have a working group to prepare a kind of statement regarding the situation?\\ Yes: Cédric, Petr, Bastian, Mikuláš, Jan, Florie\\ No: Alessandro\\ Abstain:\\ We will have a working group about this topic\\ Vote:\\ - should we the statement approved by the board or the Council?\\ Bastian points out that it makes no sense to vote on this, because right now Coucil cannot vote on it\\ Cédric totally disagree with Bastian (so did Florie)\\ We can set up a method to let the Council Member votes on this topic\\ Bastian reminds that we do not have any kind of this procedure in our current Statutes\\ Yes:\\ No:\\ Abstain:\\ Previous vote is cancelled.\\ Vote:\\ - we will show the result of working group on the council and let it express its will.
