17/03/2009European Evening of the EPP-ED Group
The EPP-ED Group in the European Parliament has organised a 'European Evening' in the Autoworld museum on 17 March 2009 where it will officially launch its new communication model and its new tagline, Europe's driving force.
The founding fathers of Europe belonged to the EPP-ED family. Today, it is the most influential political movement on the continent. It is the biggest political group in the European Parliament with 288 Members from all 27 Member States. It plays a key role in the European Commission and is in government in most EU Member States.
The EPP-ED Group is undoubtedly Europe's driving force.
During these times of crisis, the EPP-ED Group will continue to ensure that Europe gets back on track, restarts job creation and growth, and enhances security of our citizens, while remaining true to its core values and promoting greater solidarity both in Europe and throughout the world.
The Group's new tagline 'Europe's driving force' will be officially launched by the Chairman of the EPP-ED Group, Joseph Daul MEP, the President of the EPP Party, Wilfried Martens, Vice-Chairwoman of the EPP-ED Group, Marianne Thyssen MEP, and the President of the European Commission, José Manuel Durão Barroso.
