Union Européenne du Trot TROTTING UNITY IS STRENGTH 2014 ANUAL REPORT 1 Europe at a turning point The world is changing, Europe is changing, our environ- ment is changing. To say so, to put it in writing is one thing. To realise the full implications thereof and to take action is another. Calling ourselves into question, raising those fundamental issues that affect our very existence, asking questions about our foundations, our habits and hence about our future exis- tence requires courage - a lot of courage. Each one of the countries in our Association has its own history. The largest, the most important among us built their strength up from monopolies and thanks to considerable vo- lunteer efforts and remarkable work. For most of us, it was the passion, the keen desire to exist and the dedication of our members that enabled us to find a path, albeit a vulnerable and uncertain one, but one that carried our hopes high. Globalisation and the opening of borders, together with the enormous development of modern technologies have pro- duced a shock wave that no one can escape. These deve- lopments compel us to devise new visions, new balances of power and new models. The situation today requires a new governance. Together, I am sure we will gather the strength to embark on the right track so as provide a new framework for trot racing in Europe, and hence for our trainers, owners, bree- Photo 1 ders, drivers and lads - a framework capable of ensuring that ©Kanal 75/ Lars Jakobsson we continue our activities, albeit in a different way, but with Photo 2 ©LeTrot/ Jean-Luc Lamaere equal passion and pleasure.
