[FR] Euroquestions #53 | Franco-German relations: 2023, a year of recovery?

On 22 January, Germany and France will celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Élysée Treaty, which sealed a deep cooperation between the two countries. While the Franco-German partnership is often the driving force behind European integration, the relationship experienced complications in the autumn against a backdrop of profound differences: Germany’s investment plan for its economy, priorities in the energy transition, European defence and reform of the Stability and Growth Pact. How can the Franco-German dynamic be revived to address the European challenges of 2023?
We are pleased to welcome Yann Wernert, Policy Fellow at the Jacques Delors Centre in Berlin, where he is part of the team organising the Franco-German Dialogue, for this first Euroquestions of 2023.
