"With its sites and monuments soon to receive the ‘European Heritage’ stamp, the Union is proving that is still active, dynamic and indeed a reality, particularly in terms of culture. By highlighting our shared historical heritage in this way, we will be promoting European culture. I fully support this label, which remains relevant in the face of UNESCO’s World Heritage sites, as it aims to promote the symbolic European dimension of sites and monuments classified for their historical value, more than just for their beauty and architecture. I therefore welcome the adoption of this recommendation which will increase the sense of European identity among the younger generation of Europeans, and thereby honour our duty of remembrance. Nor must we forget the resultant economic benefits with the subsequent development of tourism in the classified regions. The city of Marseille, from which I hail, and its entire region are familiar with these issues. Indeed, they both represent a stage for raising awareness of the first Greek and Roman European civilisations, which permeate the region’s historical heritage, and a window opening out on the Euro-Mediterranean world, advocating intercultural diversity and dialogue."@en1
