What was said

Von der Leyen commemorates enemies laying down arms 80 years earlier and reaffirms the EU's role as a union of peace and democracy and solidarity.

Eighty years ago, enemies laid down their arms. Since then, we, Europeans, have built something extraordinary: a Union of peace, democracy, and solidarity. An anchor of stability. Our Union was born as a peace project, and it remains one today.
