For our countries, the Union has been and continues to be a community with a shared future that has helped us overcome very difficult historical experiences and find the path to modernity: the path to democracy, freedom and the rule of law. The two countries are fully committed to a sovereign and strong Europe, capable of fully assuming its responsibilities in an international society in which those values ​​and principles that I mentioned before are increasingly questioned.”
