Abstract:

The tightening of Franco-Spanish cooperation reflects France’s search for a permanent ally with similar interests in European politics and the need to ease tensions between the two countries that have arisen in recent years. Signed at the Barcelona Summit on 19 January, the bilateral treaty provides, among others, for closer coordination of the two countries’ energy, industrial and trade policies. Although the treaty was concluded at a time of marked weakening of the Franco-German tandem, strengthening cooperation with Spain will not replace the partnership with Germany, which is a critical factor for France’s European policy.
