Europe and Israel are bound to be friends and allies.

Because the history of Europe is the history of the Jewish people.

Europe is Simone Veil and Hannah Arendt. Europe is Mahler and Kafka, and Freud.

Did you know that the Schengen agreement was signed on a boat between the German, French and Luxembourg borders on this day in 1985?

The agreement would gradually abolish checks at the borders between them: the Schengen Area was born.

This is EU solidarity in action.

Computing power and energy efficiency must go hand in hand.

LUMI, the fastest and most energy-efficient supercomputer in the EU, is the perfect example.

It will make scientific breakthroughs, e.g. in medicine and climate research, possible faster.
