Speaking at the opening of what was the last vote of the European Parliament in the current 2019-2024 legislature -- the European Parliament will only hold a plenary session again in July, after the European elections in June --, Metsola began by marking the 50th anniversary of the Carnation Revolution in Portugal, being applauded by the hemicycle, in which dozens of deputies from different political forces, and not just Portuguese, displayed carnations.
According to the President of the European Parliament, the 25th of April constitutes "a moment in European history that still reverberates and inspires today, a day when democracy, freedom and dignity returned to their place in Portugal, and which reminds us that we should never take these fundamental European values for granted".
"Therefore, the symbolism of today is all the more significant as we gather for the last voting session of this 9th legislature of the European Parliament", she added.
Before the last voting session of this legislature of the European Parliament, the 50th anniversary of the 25th of April was also marked outside the hemicycle and the building itself, with the distribution of more than a thousand carnations and a moment when several MEPs joined to sing «Grândola Vila Morena».
