I attended an Audience with Pope Francis in the Vatican on the 24 March, along with other EU colleagues.

The Italian Prime Minister Paolo Gentiloni and European Parliament President Antonio Tajani spoke to Pope Francis on behalf of the EU. Pope Francis then addressed our group, recalling the core values of the EU and outlining his hopes for the future direction of Europe.
