The Helsinki process underwent significant transformations after the fall of the Iron Curtain. The early 1990s were marked by the institutionalisation of the CSCE and the enlargement of the participating states. The destabilisation of several regions and the outbreak of armed conflicts have led to a multiplication of the agenda and activities within the CSCE structures. In 2022 it was exactly 30 years since the CSCE chairmanship country was the Czech and Slovak Federative Republic. In our article, we provide an overview of how the Czechoslovak chairmanship took place in this specific context, what priorities it addressed and what significant events marked it.
