President @ZelenskyyUa and the people of Ukraine are fighting for the values and obligation that the Charlemagne Prize embodies.
In doing so, they are also fighting for our own freedom and values.
Democracy and the rule of law, free speech, freedom to create your own destiny.

Every generation has its moment when it has to stand up to defend democracy and what it believes in.
For us, that moment has come.
As freedom fighters changed the face of our continent over 30 years ago, today it is us, who will decide what Europe will look like in the future.
