As one of the objectives of this day was to bring the European institutions closer to the citizens, Adina Revol took the opportunity to remind the participants of the functioning of the European Union and to explain the respective roles of the European Commission, the European Parliament and the Council of Ministers, which are often not well known. First with the journalists during a press conference in the morning, then with the students at the Cité Internationale in the afternoon, the participants were able to take advantage of this meeting to exchange with Adina Revol in complete freedom, and to ask her their questions about the European Union.
Among the topics discussed were: the war in Ukraine, energy independence, disinformation, the green pact, climate transition and the different types of mobility offered by Erasmus +. The students present were also curious to learn about Ms Revol's background. This day allowed them to learn more about how Europe works, the impact of European policies on the territory and the opportunities offered by the EU.
