The EOC EU Office’s activities and successes were presented to the Assembly by Folker Hellmund, and further praised by EOC President Spyros Capralos, CEO Jan Lehmann, and EOC EU and International Relations Commission José Manuel Araujo. Additionally, the Janez Kocijančič Award and Piotr Nurowski Prize honored some of the best (young) European athletes. Further information on the outcomes of the General Assembly will be shared with partners in the coming days.
