In his speech, Pahor also reiterated the importance of the spirit of European inclusiveness and solidarity as starting points to build a shared vision. Solidarity was also the keyword in the video message from the president of the International Olympic Committee, Thomas Bach, who invited all countries to strengthen the role of sport in the post-coronavirus world's economic and social recovery.
