THE PARIS STATEMENT
A EUROPE WE CAN BELIEVE IN
Europe belongs to us, and we belong to Europe. Home is a place where things are familiar, and where we are recognized, however far we have wandered….
We ask all Europeans to join us in rejecting the utopian fantasy of a multicultural world without borders. We rightly love our homelands, and we seek to hand on to our children every noble thing that we have ourselves received as our patrimony. As Europeans, we also share a common heritage, and this heritage asks us to live together in peace as a Europe of nations. Let us renew national sovereignty, and recover the dignity of a shared political responsibility for Europe’s future.
We must take responsibility.
