The speech of the President of the French Republic, Emmanuel Macron, on September 7, 2017 in Pyrgos, is part of his visit to Greece, which aimed to show France's support for a country that is being tested by a long-standing crisis, but also to promote his ambitious plan for Europe at a time when the Union is shaken and reactionary voices are growing. He chooses Pyrgos as a place of high democratic symbolism to speak about the creation of a new Europe that will break free from the narrow technocratic management of its problems and will be able to emerge, amidst an aggressive and unpredictable globalization, as a dominant international power. President Macron proposes a sovereign Europe that will be able to protect its peoples, especially those affected by economic fluidity and the insecurity caused by current conditions. A Europe anew, which will claim the future by drawing on the common cultural heritage of its peoples.
