✨ What a pleasure to join my dear friend, Strasbourg Mayor yesterday!
💚 Green mayors are changing cities all over Europe - Copenhagen, Zagreb, Amsterdam, Riga and Budapest to name but a few. Affordable housing, public transport, democratic decision-making are top Green priorities. Local politics is where such challenges become concrete action and real transformation.
🇪🇺 Strasbourg - beating heart of the European project - is one of those cities. Under Mayor Barseghian, 75 000 young people benefit from free public transport. 132 000 m² of the city has been covered with vegetation. 17 000 homes have been renovated to reduce energy bills. These are not just numbers. These are transformed lives. Supported families. Breathing neighbourhoods. A city where it is better to live - for everyone.
