A new Franco-German assembly met in Paris on Monday in their first biannual summit as French and German parliaments deepen relations.
The move aims to cement the special bond and influence the two countries traditionally have in the European Union.
A total of 100 members of parliament, 50 from Germany’s Bundestag and 50 from France’s lower house of parliament (Assemblée Nationale), took part in the joint parliamentary summit. […]
