President Sassoli portrait ceremony

"Inevitably, this House has also become somewhat our home, in which we have gradually learned from him and with him to have a different look at the world, politics, values and future," said Alessandra Vittorini, the widow of former President David Sassoli during the ceremony held today in the European Parliament, which was also attended by current President Roberta Metsola.

President Metsola twitted after the ceremony that "it was an emotional morning at the European Parliament as we honoured the legacy of late President David Maria Sassoli, in the presence of his family.
Sassoli was a great President, a true European leader, and a champion for democracy.
We will remember him.
Sassoli's portrait is now on the Presidency's memorial wall, to remember his continuous commitment for democracy and European values."
