text: .in the ,past has not e&&tied si&ar adatiom with ,th& German Democratic Republic, it is France’s ‘inten- tion, ti that oountry agrees, henceforth to develop with 4t the relationships of co-operation which ar’e character- .&tic of #the ,ties between European countries. 17. The situation which we have reached in lthe cour’se of a generation has ,deveJoped 8oonsiderably since %he four Poweir,s ,$ook control of Hitlerite Germany. ‘EVe@Iing couns& us today to dive our support to ?be memb’ership appl.ications which have been submitted to ‘us.
