On the 24th of June 2008 I had the privilege to address the President of the European Parliament, Hans-Gert Pöttering, on behalf of the international students of a youth forum held in Rome. It was not allowed to take pictures in the room near Piazza Venezia, so all I can provide for now is a post factum transcript of the speech together with a small commentary in English:
Later, a more detailed account of the trip to Italy will follow.
