JOINT STATEMENT OF THE MINISTERS OF CULTURE OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
JOINT STATEMENT OF THE MINISTERS OF CULTURE OF THE
EUROPEAN UNION
On Wednesday 7 January 2015, a terrorist attack on the offices of the
satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in Paris killed 12 people, most of them
journalists and artists working for the magazine.
Despite regular death threats, they had vowed to continue expressing
their freedom to think and to create with humour and talent.
They were murdered because they drew and published cartoons.
This unspeakable act was intended to silence them forever, to terminate
the publication of the magazine and more broadly, to restrict the freedom to
think, to speak and to create. These freedoms are core values of European
democracy. They are universal democratic values.
In this time of profound sadness and grief, we, the ministers of culture
of the European Union, condemn this senseless barbarity, which attempts to
undermine our essential values in the most violent way.
We unanimously express our belief that artistic freedom and freedom of
expression stand firm and unflinching at the heart of our common European
values. France and her allies in the EU safeguard these values and promote them
in the world. We affirm our
determination to
continue to do so in the future.
We, the ministers of culture of the European Union, do not accept
terrorists' attempts to impose their own standards. Since time immemorial, the
arts have been an inspiration for reflection giving rise to new ideas and
fighting against intolerance and ignorance. It is the freedom of expression in
a culturally diverse environment that brings these ideas into meaningful
dialogue.
We, the ministers of culture of the European Union, stand in solidarity
to defend the freedom of expression and vow to protect the rights of artists to
create freely.
