El cargo de director general representa un enorme honor, y trabajar con los Miembros para aprovechar cualquier oportunidad y sacar adelante los cambios necesarios para garantizar el futuro de los medios de comunicaci n p blicos. Estoy impaciente por trabajar con Jean-Paul, con el equipo de la UER y con nuestros Miembros, de todas las regiones de la UER, para atender las necesidades de nuestras audiencias .
