Europe has the ability to lead with confidence, stand firmly on its own feet, and shape its own future. This was President Metsola's message in Helsinki as she addressed an event organised by the Paasikivi Society.
Addressing the EU-UK Forum, the President of the European Parliament Roberta Metsola said that ten years after Brexit, it is time to reset the partnership between the European Union and the United Kingdom.
A decade after the terror attacks in Brussels, the European Parliament honoured the victims and recommitted to combating radicalism, hatred and extremism.
In the wake of recent attacks, the European Parliament expressed its support to Jewish communities across Europe and beyond. In her statement, President Metsola said that we will keep calling out antisemitism, and acting against it.
