To celebrate Europe Day, the European institutions in Brussels opened their doors to the public on 6 May 2017, from 10.00 to 18.00 hours. The Public Affairs Branch from EUFOR Op Althea set up a stand in the building of the European External Action Service (EEAS) where they promoted the mission to the visitors and other EU officials.

The stand was visited, amongst others, by the High Representative of the EU for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and Vice-President of the European Commission, Federica Mogherini, and the Director of the EU Military Staff, Lt General Esa Pulkkinen.
The EU Open Door Day 2017 was a unique opportunity for citizens to discover how the European institutions work, what their main priorities are and what concrete actions they undertake. Throughout the day, visitors participated in debates, gathered information and enjoy guided tours of the buildings.
