Nationalism has caused the death of millions of poeple. Most of them were innocent. We have to learn form these facts. That's the main reason why I want to work for the sake of a United Europe. We should not only trade with one another, but also learn to live with each other. This mutual understanding and the readiness to communicate are the best guarantee for peace and freedom. And this is the main reason that I join this project as coordinator of our school. I'm very glad to see how our pupils are working with a lot of enthusiasm for the project."
