Spanish king urges 'more Europe' at Charlemagne Prize award ceremony
Spanish King Felipe VI has firmly rejected calls to dismantle the European Union, warning against the rise of "dangerous and misguided voices" advocating for a return to isolated national politics. The king made the comments on Thursday during a speech at the Charlemagne Prize award ceremony in Aachen, Germany. "We need to confront them! Dangerous and misguided voices that argue that Europeans will be freer, more independent and sovereign if they inhabit separate national political communities and work alone to address global challenges," he said. "The international environment - I strongly believe - calls for more Europe. It is now, truly, the time for Europe. Not for a more 'euro-centric' vision of the world," he added. The Charlemagne Prize is widely regarded as the most prestigious honour for contributions to European unity. This year's recipient, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, was praised by the award committee for "keeping Europe united, resilient and capable of action." The award ceremony is taking place in the city hall of Aachen, an ancient city on the border with Belgium and the Netherlands linked to the 8th/9th century European emperor, Charlemagne.

President Sisi invites Spain's king, queen to attend Grand Egyptian Museum opening in July
CAIRO – 19 February 2025: President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi has invited Spain's King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia to attend the inauguration ceremony of the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), scheduled for July. During a speech at a luncheon hosted in his honor by the Spanish king and queen in Madrid on Wednesday, the president also invited them to visit Egypt at the earliest opportunity. GEM is poised to become the world's largest museum dedicated solely to one civilization, which is ancient Egypt. Nestled close to the recently opened Sphinx International Airport and offering stunning views of the iconic Pyramids of Giza, GEM covers an expansive 500,000 square meters. The museum's size is remarkable—double that of the Louvre and two and a half times that of the British Museum. The GEM hosted a soft opening in November 2023, welcoming visitors to explore its beautiful gardens and cafes, the impressive hanging obelisk, and the main galleries.
