25/03/2022 (Agence Europe) – On 25 March, the French Presidency of the Council of the EU (FPEU) celebrated the 65th anniversary of the Treaty of Rome. On 25 March 1957, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg and the Netherlands signed two founding treaties in Rome: the European Economic Community (EEC) and the European Atomic Energy Community (Euratom). Both treaties entered into force on 14 January 1958. On the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the Treaty of Rome, EUROPE has published a commemorative series (see EUROPE 11753/1) tracing the Agency’s coverage of European integration over more than sixty-five years, since the Agency was founded in March 1953.
