As was agreed to at the previous Executive Committee held in January in Brussels, on 30 March we held an important Executive Committee meeting in Malta, during the last part of the European People’s Party Congress, which was a great success, with many Heads of State and Government in attendance, along with top-ranking European Union representatives. During the session important decisions were made regarding current political issues, which can be viewed in the Resolutions section; and the Organization’s new statutes were unanimously approved, which should be valid and in force within a few months, once the necessary procedures have been completed. We were honoured to welcome, among others: President Pastrana, EPP Secretary-General Antonio López-Isturiz, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, Cape Verde Prime Minister Ulisses Correia, EPP President Joseph Daul, former Slovenian Prime Minister Janez Jansa, and other members of the Executive Committee from more than 15 countries.
