ABSTRACT
Anyone who has read Part II of this Report should have acquired a fairly clear impression of the attitudes of the six Member Governments of the Community during the negotiations. And it is not difficult, nor is it wrong, to conclude that in the main our negotiations were a negotiation with France. Nevertheless, a rather more systematic and connected description is required than the necessarily disjointed chapters of Part II could give of the general position and attitude throughout the negotiations of each of the Governments of the members of the Community. This chapter will attempt this task in respect of the Five; and the next two chapters will deal with France.
