    At the Quai d'Orsay, on May 9, 1950, Robert Schuman, the French Minister of Foreign Affairs, made a public declaration which would fundamentally affect the future of postwar Europe. He proposed that, Franco-German production of coal and steel as a whole be placed under a common High Authority, within the framework of an organisation open to the participation of the other countries of Europe. The pooling of coal and steel production should immediately provide for the setting up of common foundations for economic development as a first step in the federation of Europe.
