The leaders of France and Germany met in Paris to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the signing of the Elysée Treaty.
The Treaty of Elysees was concluded on January 22, 1963 to end the long-standing hostile relationship between the two countries for cooperation and reconciliation, and is considered to be the foundation that led to the birth of the European Union.
French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz pledged cooperation between the two countries with one voice.

After the ceremony, the two leaders presided over a joint ministerial meeting in the fields of energy, economy and defense at the Elysee Palace.
The entire German cabinet came to Paris for a joint ministerial meeting on Sunday.
At the meeting, the focus was on whether to support main battle tanks for Ukraine, the US inflation reduction law, and how to respond to the IRA.
The meeting, which was originally scheduled to take place in October of last year, was postponed due to disagreements between the two countries on various pending issues, such as energy shortages caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and countermeasures against inflation.
The two leaders hope to build Europe together for the next generation and share the same ambition of a strong and sovereign Europe, which will strengthen Europe’s independent voice.
