„Nothing is more important today than the establishment of a secure peace.“ said the then German Chancellor Willy Brandt on his much-acclaimed trip to Warsaw. His thoughts – although from 1970 – have lost none of their relevance to this day, which is why I would like to recall them in front of this interesting “milestone of peace”. He continued in his speech: “There is no alternative to this. Peace is not possible without European solidarity. Everything that brings us closer to this goal is a good service to our people and, above all, a service to those who come after us.”
