The Portugal 2007 logo reveals a Portuguese view of the visual representation of the Presidency of the European Union.
The “Blue flower” is a symbol of today’s Portugal: modernity, harmony, the oceans, transparency and openness to the future.
The petals are arranged freely but concentrically, symbolising the individual contribution of each Member State to the joint endeavour of building Europe.
The possibility of the symbol adopting the colours of each national flag confers on the Portuguese presidency a constructive image of openness and cooperation with every Member State of the European Union.
