On 19 March, the Chaplain-President, acting in his capacity as Bishop Robert's adviser for EU affairs, participated in the iftar (the meal at which Muslims break their daily fast during the month of Ramadan) hosted by the Belgian Catholic MEP Kathleen Van Brempt in the famous Mickey Mouse café in the European Parliament. A large group of Muslims and interfaith guests were present, and the Chaplain-President was among those who made speeches stressing the common commitment of the main European religions and convictions to the three basic EU principles of democracy, human rights and the rule of law.

Thank you to the Intercultural Dialogue Platform for putting together a video of the evening!
