European Union Treaty

The European Union Treaty refers to a series of agreements that form the foundation of the European Union (EU), a political and economic union of European countries. These treaties establish rules for cooperation among member states, covering areas such as trade, security, and the movement of people. Key treaties include the Maastricht Treaty, which created the EU and the euro currency, and the Lisbon Treaty, which streamlined decision-making. The treaties aim to promote peace, stability, and prosperity in Europe, ensuring that countries work together on common challenges while respecting their sovereignty.
