ECB President Mario Draghi once pledged to save the euro. He has now received the Charlemagne Prize. Federal Chancellor Merz sees him as a role model in the current time of crisis.

His report on European competitiveness – for which he is receiving this prize – identified Europe’s weaknesses with unnerving accuracy: a single market still incomplete; energy markets too fragmented; capital markets too segmented; defence industries still divided along national lines.

But its great achievement was larger than diagnosis alone. Mario showed that competitiveness is more than an economic question. It is about whether Europe can preserve its prosperity and remain the master of its own destiny in the world we now face.

And since publishing the report, he has continued to do what he has done throughout his career: concentrate minds and insist that Europe look directly at the scale of the task before it.

The European Central Bank (ECB) is the central bank of the European Union countries which have adopted the euro. Our main task is to maintain price stability in the euro area and so preserve the purchasing power of the single currency.

It is in this context that I express my profound gratitude for the work of the Foundation. Your commitment enables the Vatican's scientists to engage meaningfully with the wider public and with the global scientific community. Your generosity makes it possible for the Vatican Observatory to share the wonder of astronomy with students from across the world, and to offer workshops and summer schools to those serving in Catholic schools and parishes. And it is ultimately your dedication that keeps the Observatory’s telescopes and laboratories what they were always meant to be: places where the glory of God’s creation is encountered with reverence, with depth, and joy.
