On January 22, 1963, Germany and France signed the Elysee Treaty. After three bloody wars, the two countries made reconciliation, cooperation and friendship central elements of their common destiny.
Today, we look back at the signature of the Treaty 60 years ago with pride. The reconciliation, especially after WWII, paved the way for strong friendship and partnership. This 60th Franco-German Friendship day will be honoured with a ministerial council.
