The Jubilee - 15th Polish European Meetings honoring Robert Schuman

As the first non-governmental organization in Poland the Polish Robert Schuman Foundation started promoting the idea of European integration in 1991. Two years later we organized the First Polish European Meetings and thus started to celebrate Europe Day. After six years there were far more European enthusiasts in Poland than any conference room was capable of accommodating. This is why we gathered on the streets and the Schuman Parade, an invitation for every citizen to join us in the United Europe, was born that year. A few years later we are proud to say that the Parade is the biggest, annual, pro-European event in central Europe. We were clearly expressing our “yes” to the accession referendum and were all celebrating together when Poland was joining the European Union. Last year we were celebrating the 50th anniversary of signing the Rome Treaties. Throughout many years and a long way from vision to reality we have always been together. Today we are able to congratulate each other on the strong position that Poland holds in the United Europe. Therefore let me express my hope that you will join us and be our guest at the 15th Polish European Meetings.
