The January–March 1955 issue of the journal Chronique de politique étrangère, published by the Brussels-based Institut des relations internationales, analyses the outcome of the conferences held in London and Paris in 1954 to settle the questions which remained unresolved after the failure of the European Defence Community (EDC): the end of the occupation regime in the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG), the FRG’s accession to the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO), the modification of the Brussels Treaty establishing Western European Union (WEU), and the accession of the FRG and Italy to WEU.
