On this day, 69 years ago, six countries took a leap of faith and signed the Treaty of Rome. 🇧🇪 🇩🇪 🇫🇷 🇮🇹 🇱🇺 🇳🇱

They chose cooperation over division, laying the foundations for what would become today’s European Union.

From a shared market to shared ambitions, that vision has grown far beyond economics. It’s about connection, opportunity, and celebrating what makes each member country unique.

Different languages, cultures, and histories, one common journey.

United in diversity, then and now. 💙

@EUCommission We know it's not all Ode To Joy & Erasmus, but Brits are missing being in the EU. While there's plenty badly wrong with the EU, eg, its stance on Palestine, Brexit was a stupid move, & denies Britain a voice in what goes on, besides the economic cost.
