A delegation from the “United States of the World” and the “Fondazione Mediterraneo” – led by Senator Giuseppe Lumia and Jacopo Molinari – took part in the “March for Europe” on Europe Day.
“Under the slogan ‘We are here’, it was a joy to see so many young people motivated by the ideals of the ‘United States of Europe’,” said Secretary-General Michele Capasso, who has long been committed to the establishment of the “United States of Europe” within the framework of the “United States of the World”.
In his speech, Senator Lumia emphasised the imperative of achieving the establishment of the “United States of Europe”, stressing that “When there is the will and the motivation, we need people to make the dream a reality. And this is what is happening today. Still, few- far too few - know that 9 May is Europe Day. Indeed, it is Europe Day: it coincides with the first, famous speech on European unity delivered officially in Paris by the then French Foreign Minister Robert Schuman in 1950, the declaration that marked the start of the EU’s integration process. Although the European institutions mark the occasion with the appropriate celebrations, the general public, both in Italy and in the other Member States, is not really aware of this anniversary. We want a Europe with a real government that makes decisions; we want a Europe with a real Parliament that makes laws.”

"Magma Editions" series of “United States of the World” is being showcased at the 2026 Turin International Book Fair on the Campania Region’s stand, which has welcomed numerous publishing houses, authors and guests from the worlds of entertainment and publishing.
At a time when we are experiencing an immense famine of Love and a suicidal selfishness is contaminating the whole of humanity, today’s visit by the Holy Father is a source of comfort for all those who work for dialogue, social justice and Peace: that Unarmed and Disarming Peace which, by pure coincidence, is enshrined in the first article of the ‘Constitution of the United States of the World’ — approved by 181 countries and 16,000 civil society organisations on 18 November 2022 — and is among the first words spoken a year ago by Pope Leo XIV immediately after his election as Supreme Pontiff.
The “United States of the World” and the “Fondazione Mediterraneo” express their appreciation to the Holy Father Leo XIV for having highlighted the importance of Naples as a “Bridge over the Mediterranean” during his pastoral visit.
