The 2004 enlargement was a defining moment for our Union.

One that transformed the societies & economies of new member states.

And made our Union stronger together.

Today, we proudly hoist the flags of these countries.

We unfurl our Union's flag, celebrating #20YearsTogether .

On 1 May 2004, the EU became stronger when we welcomed 🇨🇿 🇪🇪 🇨🇾 🇱🇻 🇱🇹 🇭🇺 🇲🇹 🇵🇱 🇸🇮 🇸🇰 into our union.

For the new members, joining our EU family has been a powerful engine for more prosperity.
