At the General Assembly in Samsun the participating 40 national members approved the reports of the ETU executive organs and the budget for the upcoming year. Three new ETU members have been welcomed:
FYROM Macedonia, San Marino and Lithuania.
ETU Statutes have been changed in accordance with the statutes of the WTF so that ETU ExCo members will have a personal voting right at the General Assembly from now on. The following hosting sites for ETU-tournaments have been designated:
- European Technical Championships 2003 - Bastia (Corse) / France
- European Championships for Teams 2004 - Grenoble / France
- European Junior Championships 2005 - Baku / Azerbaidjan
The hosting sites for all other upcoming ETU events have not been decided upon yet. This will be done at the next General Assembly in Athens. A list of honours has been accepted by the GA which names a number of persons who will receive an honorary award by ETU for their contribution to the development of European Taekwondo.
The meeting was closed at one o'clock and the next General Assembly of ETU will take place in Athens probably in March 2003. This will be an assembly where elections will take place.
