Baltic Sea Parliamentary Conference
Cooperation within the Baltic Sea Parliamentary Conference
The Baltic Sea Parliamentary Conference (BSPC) was established in 1991 as a forum for political dialogue between parliamentarians from the Baltic Sea Region. It aims at raising awareness and opinion on issues of current political interest that are relevant to the Baltic Sea region. Some issues and initiatives support the development of a sustainable environment, economy and social system in the Baltic Sea region.
The BSPC is composed of members from 10 national, 7 regional parliaments and 5 parliamentary organisations around the Baltic Sea. Since the Russian Federation invaded Ukraine, the memberships of the national and regional parliaments of Russia have been suspended and frozen.
The Baltic Sea Parliamentary Conference is the annual general assembly for broad political debate on the Baltic Sea issues. The Conference resolutions are political tools which enable the BSPC to take and support political initiatives, and to approach the governments and regional organisations on the issues of common interest.
Since 1992, the Baltic Assembly has been a permanent member of the BSPC.
The host of the 33rd BSPC, the Danish Folketinget, is responsible for the operational planning and execution of the 33rd Conference in Helsingør on 25-27 August 2024. Alfons Röblom is the President of the BSPC for 2024-2025.
