Hello, hallo zusammen! Franco-German Week has begun! Around January 22, many events are organized Franco-German in France and Germany.
But why celebrate a Franco-German Day? And why 22 January?
To date, it is very simple. The Treaty of Franco-German (Elysée Treaty) was signed January 22, 1963 by German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer and French President Charles De Gaulle. This treaty marks the real start of the Franco-German friendship, after no less than three wars in less than 100 years. For French, German was the hereditary enemy, and vice versa for the Germans.
The history of Europe is marked by military wars between the French and the Germans, but also influences the wars between the French and German interests. Things are simple. Without Franco-German reconciliation, there will be no Europe possible.
Several decades have demonstrated the importance of Franco-German relationship building Europe. The Franco-German engine for Europe.
Today, the Franco-German friendship seems acquired and nobody would think that a war between the two countries would be possible. This is partly true, the Franco-German reconciliation is a reality. And we must rejoice! However, this does not mean that everything has been achieved and we have seen in past crises about the Euro. In case of disagreement between France and Germany, the situation is blocked. If French is Germans working together they can take Europe forward.
That is why, beyond the symbol of friendship between our peoples, we must continually work together to reconcile, the Franco-German serving Europe.
And to begin this week, I offer the following little game: Do you want pictures with me?
