I welcome your contribution  to European democracy.

The founders of our Community  did not envisage a comfortable club

with closed doors,  but a Community of challenge

where members are exposed  to different points of view.

We have today a dynamic entity  which accepts new members

while holding out ties of friendship  and cooperation to a wider world.
