Description of Twinning
The Concise Publication of the European Union describes twinning in the following terms: [1] When two towns 'twin' with each other, the Commission makes cash available for joint projects in return for which it urges the mayors to swear an oath in favour of European unification. The suggested form of wording is:
We, the mayors of ...
Confident that we are responding to the deeply felt aspirations and real needs of our townspeople ... and believing that the work of history must be carried forward in a larger world ...
Give a solemn pledge
to foster exchanges ... in every area of life so as to develop a living sense of European kinship ...
And to join forces to help secure, to the utmost of our abilities, a successful outcome to this vital venture of peace and prosperity -
