We were also pleased to welcome Dr Lydia Abela, who was accompanied by Hon. Clint Camilleri, Minister for Gozo and Planning. During their visit, they toured the stands and met with participating organisations.

A sincere thank you to all participating entities and visitors who helped make this year’s Europe Day a successful and engaging public event. 🇪🇺✨

🇪🇺 Europe Day | 9 May 🇪🇺

Each year, Europe Day marks the anniversary of the Schuman Declaration, presented on 9 May 1950 by French Foreign Minister Robert Schuman. 📜✨

In the aftermath of the Second World War, Schuman, together with Jean Monnet, proposed that European countries should pool coal and steel production. ⚙️🤝 This practical step was intended to make future conflict between European nations not only unthinkable, but materially impossible. 🕊️

This idea led to the creation of the European Coal and Steel Community in 1951, bringing together Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg and the Netherlands. 🌍 It became the first supranational organisation in Europe and laid the foundations for what would eventually become the European Union. 🇪🇺

From this first act of cooperation grew a wider project based on peace, unity, solidarity and shared democratic values. 🕊️🤝⭐ Today, the European Union brings together 27 Member States and represents over 450 million citizens.

On 9 May, we celebrate the beginning of an idea that helped transform Europe - from division to cooperation, and from conflict to a shared future. 🌟

🇪🇺 Happy Europe Day! 🎉
