On 22^nd January, 55^th anniversary of the Treaty of Versailles, we were sharing with you a proposed European Constitution, a new foundation for the European Union. More democratic, more transparent, and more efficient, we believe it can create durable and representative institutions for all EU citizens, regardless of their State of origin.

Following the interest generated by this proposal, we decided that it deserved its own online platform, for ease of access and discussion. This is why, today, we are thrilled to introduce a new website dedicated to this project. Through this platform, you will be able to read about this Constitution, review the full text and specific comments in a clear manner, and get all your questions answered, both on the underlying reasons why we need this Constitution and on the document’s content.

We hope this will contribute to a larger discussion on the future of the European Union and of its institutions, and finally reposition European federalism as a central path for our renewed peace and prosperity.

Best regards,
