Abstract

France and Germany have very different views when it comes to economics and the preferred forms of European integration. Germany fears that France is not making the necessary structural reforms with respect to its economy, and is surprised that its proposals for a political union have elicited any response from France. Paris and Berlin should develop proposals together to be able to integrate both economic and political issues to generate a new European project. Adapted from the source document.
