Arcizet condemns the action of Sarkozy's security adviser

Paris, France. After Alain Bauer, together with a Past Grand Master of the GLdF, tried to intervene in the internal affairs of GLNF (through a letter sent to Alan Englefield), Guy Arcizet accuses Bauer of his inappropriate behavior. Arcizet said to Bauer's action that "You pay too much attention to the United Grand Lodge of England".

Police in France protected the location where GLNF's Annual Communication took place

Paris, France. The Annual Communication of the French National Grand Lodge was guarded by French police yesterday December 3, 2011. It is an unusual case for a consolidated democracy such as that of France and it seems more like an event from an African country.


Stifani's opponents protested in front of the headquarters during GLNF's Annual Communication with placards, they laid wreaths in protest and chanted against the current Grand Master. This event is unique in France and worldwide. Freemasons from GLNF have complained that Stifani wanted to provide Sarkozy the loyalty of all 43,000 members of the French National Grand Lodge.


European Union leaders met with leaders of Freemasonry in Europe

Brussels, Belgium. European Union leaders met with the Grand Masters of Europe to discuss about the European future. On 30 November 2011, the European Union held a joint meeting with the Grand Lodges and Grand Orients of Europe to speak about the democracy and prosperity partnership as a form of promotion of democratic rights and freedoms.


The European Union was represented at this meeting by Jose Manuel Barroso (President of the European Commission), Herman Van Rompuy (European Council President), Jerzy Buzek (President of European Parliament) and Laszlo Tokes (Vice President of the European Parliament from Romania).


Romania, France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Luxembourg, Italy, Germany and Greece were represented at the different Masonic delegations. Gustavo Raffi has released an interesting proposal, current and consistent with EU's policies. Raffi has proposed "the establishment for youth of the Pantheon of the New Spring in the Mediterranean".
