EPP Libertas Forum
08. July 2026
The European People’s Party is launching the first gathering of EPP Libertas Forum, a new format to bring together participants from Europe and Ibero‑America to engage in dialogue on European priorities and shared challenges, including freedom, liberal democracy, the rule of law, fundamental rights and economic prosperity.
On both sides of the Atlantic, we are witnessing political projects that are eroding freedom and democracy. It is the duty of Europe’s leading political force to defend the principles and values that protect our people, societies and institutions.
The first edition of the Libertas Forum will take place on 15–16 July in Madrid, led by EPP President Manfred Weber and EPP Secretary General Dolors Montserrat, with the participation of the Prime Minister of Portugal, Luís Montenegro; the Deputy Prime Minister of Italy and EPP Vice-President, Antonio Tajani; and the President of Spain’s Partido Popular, Alberto Núñez Feijóo.
