‘In the shadow. Welcome, Sir — a very warm welcome! — Let’s talk about Europe!’ On 10 August 1960, German cartoonist Hanns Erich Köhler illustrates the attempts to establish closer relations between the United Kingdom and the European Economic Community (EEC). Although Federal Chancellor Konrad Adenauer has decided to reach out to British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan, the shadow of General de Gaulle is looming over the German partner. Despite Chancellor Adenauer’s mediation efforts, French President de Gaulle remains opposed to British accession to the Common Market.
