A delegation of 23 former MEPs from eight EU countries and different European political families headed to Helsinki. The FMA Board Member\, Lord Richard Balfe\, was the leader of the Delegation. The FMA in co-operation with the Finish Parliament and the European Parliament Liaison Office set up a very stimulating programme. Former MEPs were able to participate in high-level informative meetings with experts\, parliament’s representatives and with the Minister of European Affairs as well as to visit the European Centre of Excellence for Countering Hybrid Threats.\nThe whole FMA delegation had a vibrant discussion about the Future of Europe with university students. Finnish newspapers gave great visibility to the FMA Visit.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”4491″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text] \n“It was the first time I participated in the activities of our Association. The dynamism of the leader of the Delegation\, the friendship of the members associated with Elisabetta’s talent made this trip a beautiful memory!\nThe visit to the centre about hybrid threats\, to which I added the visit of the beautiful and new multimedia library of the capital\, brought a real added value to our trip as well as the visit of the Museum Amos Rex with its original content and interior architecture!\nIt is through the links between people that Europe will consolidate its fundamentals and in these times of doubt and scepticism our journey will undoubtedly have in its own way contributed to cementing these relations”. \nNathalie Griesbeck – FMA Member \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”4493″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text] \n“I took part in the FMA visit for the first time. I just retired from the EP.\nIt was nice to meet former colleagues\, to discuss EU issues and get up-to-date information.\nEverything was well organised. I am sure I will be an active member of the FMA.” \nAnneli Jäätteenmäki – FMA member \n[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”4495″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text] \n” Among the really important medium term or long term issues\, that are not only domestics\, are issues such as climate change\, immigration\, European Defence and the deteriorating European Economic outlook.”  \nJaakko Iloniemi – Former Finish Ambassador \n[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”4497″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]More pictures of the visit here.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
