 5, January 2011                                                               

This week, Jose Manuel Barroso, President of the European Comission, Viktor Orbán Prime Minister of Hungary, and Stavros Lambrinidis, Vice-President of the European Parliament together inaugurate the House of the European Union developed by WING.

The building is going to be the home of the Commission’s Hungarian Representation and the European Parliament’s Information Bureau. Choosing the right place for the project the outstanding, central position, the friendly environment of the modern Millenáris Park, the emblematical nature and the perfect construction were the most important aspects.

Hungarian Presidency of the Council of the European Union officially started on 1 January, but will actually take over its position on 6 and 7 January. The ceremonies will be followed by a joint session of the Hungarian Government and the Comission and later a joint international press conference of Viktor Orbán, and Jose Manuel Barroso.
