‘We don’t have to be ashamed about being European (Pleven to the National Assembly).’ On 19 January 1957, in the French Communist daily newspaper L’Humanité, commenting on the debates in the National Assembly on the proposed European Economic Community (EEC), the cartoonist Mitelberg criticises the supporters of the Common Market, including Prime Minister René Pleven, who are accused of wanting to further the interests of German industry.
