On Europe Day, the European Union matters
The European Parliament President Roberta Metsola will address the This is Europe debate with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz at Europe Day, 9th May 2023.
Olaf Scholz, Bundeskanzler of Germany, is our guest on Europe Day, a day of symbolism and history, as well as the future.
Robert Schuman’s Declaration of 9th May 1950 begins: “World peace cannot exist without creative efforts proportionate to its dangers.” It still rings true today.
On this day every year, we celebrate Europe. A project of reconciliation that is unprecedented and fundamentally based upon solidarity. A project that brings us together without trying to make everyone the same. A project that emitted a light that penetrated iron curtains and concrete wall.
Europe Day reminds of what we can achieve when we work together and the responsibility we have to continue moving forward.
The Schuman Declaration and our European Union took courage. Change requires courage.
I know that many people share our frustrations about some of our processes. The fundamental pillars that make this project unique are hope, possibility, freedom, democracy, and the rule of the law. We cannot take for granted what we stand for and what we have achieved. We must continue to evolve.
Daring solutions made it possible for Europe to progress. More daring solutions are needed to move forward.
I know we can count on Germany to do just that. Yours, Dear Chancellor, is an unwavering Member State that shows a commitment to the betterment for Europe.
Let me thank you, Germany, for your support of Ukraine, for Germany’s contribution in the construction of a new EU security architecture, for Germany’s push for new technologies, and for Germany’s defense of human rights such as women’s and men’s rights in Iran.
You said, “We have good reason to be optimistic about our future”. This is the spirit we must have to move forward.
Reform is necessary. Change is inevitable, but we must prepare for it. We must regain the courage that fueled the Schuman Declaration. We must keep the light shining brighter.
We know we are stronger together. We will look to Germany, as well as all other Member States, to help reform and prepare for our European future.
The European Union is important. It is worth it.
Es lebe Europa.
