Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize and trust the sender. Dear Mr Leggeri, In May 2018, the Foreign Affairs Council adopted Conclusions on Enhanced EU Security Cooperation in and with Asia (please see attached). To support the EEAS Delegations and HQ in implementing the FAC Conclusions a €14 million project was set up funded through the Partnership Instrument (PI) and a contribution from Germany in five pilot countries – India, Indonesia, Japan, the Republic of Korea, and Vietnam – with a four-year implementation period. The project (brief presentation attached) focuses on four thematic areas – counter-terrorism, cyber security, maritime security, and crisis management and aims to support policy dialogue, peer-to-peer cooperation and capacity building and public diplomacy and outreach. The project was launched this spring, and after some delays, notably due to the Covid pandemic, implementation has now began. In dialogue with FPI and EEAS, the project has drawn up country-specific Roadmaps of proposed activities which are now being discussed with the partner countries in view of prioritising. We are convinced that Frontex has very relevant expertise from which the project could benefit. I would, therefore, be grateful if you could indicate to us a contact person that [Personal Data]                                                                        (both in cc) could contact to explore opportunities for cooperation during the implementation of the project. Kind regards, [Personal Data] 1
