After an authentic warm welcome by Lord Mayor of Aachen, Marcel Philipp, Viviane Reding, former Vice President of the European Commission and Commissioner ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viviane_Reding ) rendered a fulminant speech on the needs and impact of the ERASMUS program for EUROPE and European identity.
It was a genuine pleasure to attend this function with the Director of the Institut Francais Bonn, Prof. Landry Charrier, ( https://www.fif.uni-bonn.de/wir-ueber-uns/institutfrancaisbonn ).
