“I belong to a generation that has not seen war in Europe. But the present crisis in Europe has brought back the dark days of World War II and because of that it is even more important that we have such get-togethers. It shows we are still together no matter how difficult the situation is,” said Nicolas Facino, Director, Alliance Française du Bengale.
