Malta and the EU - a Mediterranean perspective

Abstract

[Conclusion]:I wish to reiterate that it is our desire to combine our European vocation with the realities of our own Mediterranean location. My Government believes that the best means of achieving this goal is through membership of the European Union. On accession, all countries bring to the Union their own particular viewpoints and their own particular contributions, enriching the EU’s diversity in the process. We believe that Malta will enhance the Mediterranean dimension of the Union and contribute to the building of ever stronger and more reliable links with our Mediterranean partners. We are convinced of the role Malta can play in bringing to this area of five hundred million people a greater cohesion at the political, commercial and cultural level. Show more
