Address by Mr. Ivan Gašparovič, President of the Slovak Republic

This model of monetary union left only a small role for financial markets in disciplining national budget behavior.

But such doubts ignore the political and cultural factors that buttress a deep European commitment to preserve the monetary union.

They argue that it is not the ECB s job to rescue the euro or to prevent countries from exiting the monetary union.

Mr. Ivan Gašparovič, President of the Slovak Republic, was escorted into the General Assembly Hall.

The President The Assembly will now hear an address by the President of the Slovak Republic.

On March 12, 1939, the Slovak State declared its independence as a satellite state under Jozef Tiso.

The pace of Slovak economic growth has continued to exceed that of Czech growth to the present day (2003).

On 22 February 1993, the Czech Republic notified its succession to the Covenant and the Optional Protocol.

Aftermath The Slovak part of Czechoslovakia made major gains in industrial production in the 1960s and 1970s.

Both the Royal Hungarian Army and the Royal Hungarian Air Force fought in the brief Slovak Hungarian War.

The Slovak government is still in power, but it has lost its majority and could fall soon.

The Slovak Republic is also member of the Working Group on Terrorism (WGT) at the EU Council and of Europol.

Slovak troops take part in peacekeeping missions in relatively high numbers when measured against the size of Slovakia's army or economy.

The Slovak Republic has, however, made the following reservation concerning the second additional protocol The Slovak Republic avails itself of the right set out in Article 33 paragraph 2 of the second additional protocol not to accept Articles 16, 17, 19 and 20 of the Protocol in their entirety.

The Slovak Republic is in favour of the Council being composed of a small number of members in order to give it the necessary flexibility in responding to emerging problems.

In order to bring terrorists and their supporters to justice, the Slovak Republic adopted several measures with a view to the protection of targets that are vulnerable to terrorist attacks.

The President On behalf of the General Assembly, I wish to thank the President of the Slovak Republic for the statement he has just made.

BRUSSELS It is an old debate, but tensions within the euro area have revived it can a monetary union survive without some form of fiscal federalism?

According to paragraph 3, the exchange of classified information between the Slovak Republic and a foreign party is conducted in conformity with the international treaty, which is binding on the Slovak Republic.

President Gašparović (spoke in Slovakian English text provided by the delegation) Sixty years is an important anniversary for a person or an organization.

There was no support for centralizing any significant elements of fiscal policy nor is there today. But such a transfer of authority was not seen back then as necessary for monetary union to work.
