Spotlight Europe

About the author:

Radoslav Nikolaev Stefanov (16) took part in the My Europe Workshop in Sofia on 28-29 November 2016 and won the third prize of the writing competition.

He is a student at 7th Secondary School” Sveti Sedmochislenitsi” in Sofia and would like to become a doctor, as Chemistry and Biology have always fascinated him.

Statement:

“For me, My Europe is …something inviolable . It represents us, the people who live in it and it represents the Union we have established (EU). Europe is where our home, culture and traditions are. Now and forever!“

If you could, what would be the first thing you would change in Europe?

“I think one of the biggest problems is the migration process that is happening right now, as you are reading this. If I could change something, it would definitely be strengthening the boundaries , as this would dramatically decrease the stream of people flooding into our countries. Don’t get me wrong, I want to help those people, Europe wants to help them, but our continent does not have the state funds nor it’s in position to save the world.”
