The Konrad Adenauer Stiftung event provided a platform for insightful discussions on a range of topics, as President Metsola shared her perspectives on pressing issues facing Europe. The inclusion of Philipp Lahm added a unique dimension to the conversation, bridging the worlds of politics and sports. As the Tournament Director for Euro 2024, Lahm’s insights into the organisation of one of Europe’s premier football events brought a fresh perspective to the panel.

The intersection of politics and sports has long been a powerful tool for fostering international understanding and cooperation. President Metsola’s presence at the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung event exemplified this, showcasing the importance of dialogue between leaders from diverse fields. The exchange of ideas between a political leader and a sports figure like Lahm highlights the potential for collaboration across seemingly disparate realms.

Beyond the panel discussions, President Metsola’s visit to the German capital also included meaningful interactions with Maltese artists, cultural professionals, and representatives from civil society who are in Berlin.
