Socialists of France and Germany - Unite!
Martine Aubry, Le Monde (in French) | July 15, 2010
Conservative governments across Europe are implementing austerity programs that “are creating the conditions for a recession across the continent.” ++ The absence of any type of coherent plan for exiting the crisis has led to “the resurgence here and there of anti-European nationalism.” ++ The conservative agendas have also hurt Franco-German relations. ++ Socialists in both countries should unite in order to “refashion the Franco-German couple as the motor for economic, social, and political progress in Europe.”
