Letter from André François-Poncet to Antoine Pinay on German reactions to the Noordwijk Conference (9 September 1955)
Texte On 9 September 1955, André François-Poncet, French Ambassador to West Germany, reports back to French Foreign Minister Antoine Pinay on reactions in the German press to the Noordwijk Conference. Since the conference coincided with Chancellor Adenauer’s visit to Moscow, which attracted much more interest in the press, the comments were fewer and less enthusiastic than during the first stages of European integration. The ambassador even notes an increasing amount of criticism levelled at the recent plans for European economic integration and points out the concerns in German industrial circles over this issue.
