The Assembly,
Considering that it is desirable that close co-operation be continuously maintained between the democratic nations of Europe and the countries of North America,
Considering that the only way of consolidating such co-operation is through closer union between European nations,
Declares that to this end existing European organisations must be maintained and strengthened,
Considers that a close liaison must also be established between these organisations and the nations of North America,
Recommends that the Committee of Ministers adopt this declaration on behalf of Member States,
Requests that it be kept regularly informed of the progress made towards such co-operation with the nations of North America, and of the way in which it is being achieved.
