Unity, cooperation and our commitment to democratic values make our countries stronger, more stable and more influential on the global stage. I call on all our partners to join forces to strengthen European cooperation in the fields of media education, cybersecurity and combating disinformation, creating a common front against those who try to weaken our democratic foundations,” said Abrudean.
