Today,
at the age of 92, Mario Soares, the former President and also Prime Minister of
Portugal, passed away. He had been a symbol of freedom and democratic values
during his days in politics. Furthermore, he was a firm believer in the unity
of the European nations. Soares was convinced that Europe can only move into
the future if it remains in peace with itself, mutually supportive and united. He
was also an excellent example of leadership: unusual, not afraid of speaking
his mind, and always connected with the feelings of the majority of the
citizens. It is time to honour his memory and exalt his example.
