Vice President Andrus Ansip, Vice President Valdis Dombrovskis and Commissioner Vytenis Andriukaitis represented the Commission on 10 January at a ceremony to mark the 35th anniversary of the first European Parliament resolution calling for the restoration of independence of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

The resolution came in response to the "Baltic Appeal", the public initiative which called for international support for the restoration of independence, which is remembered as a powerful demonstration of the European Union's solidarity with the Baltic states. 100 years after declaring their independence in 1918, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania have each taken their place at the heart of Europe, as key members of the European Union and euro area. The ceremony will also be attended by two of the signatories of the Baltic Appeal.
