Mr. Leitner provided an overview about the strategic priorities of the TRIO presidency in the area of Freedom, Security and Justice and Mr. Schroeder presented the most recent developments in the life of the Agency. The meeting, which was held in an open and constructive atmosphere, provided a unique opportunity for fruitful discussions and the exchange of views, with the aim of identifying the best way forward and ensuring a successful collaboration for the future.
