Key Points

  • French co‑prince’s letter officially identified the agreement as a mixed agreement.
  • As a mixed agreement, it must follow procedural approvals from both Andorran and French authorities.
  • Ensenyat presented this interpretation as definitive for parliamentary debate.
  • He urged shifting focus to practical implementation, institutional dialogue and technical preparation.

“When the French co-prince sent the letter saying it was a mixed agreement, it already was a mixed agreement,” said Carles Ensenyat, Síndic General, referring to the formal classification communicated by the French co-prince.

Ensenyat stressed that the co-prince’s letter settled the question of the agreement’s legal nature: by being identified as a mixed agreement, it must follow the procedures and approvals that such agreements require from both Andorran and French authorities. He presented that interpretation as definitive for the parliamentary debate.

The Síndic General added that, with that point clarified and the parliamentary discussion behind them, institutions should now concentrate on the next phase. That phase, he said, should focus on the practical and procedural steps needed to advance implementation and ensure proper coordination between the two sides.

He called for channeling efforts into the concrete work of delivering on the agreement’s aims rather than rehashing classification questions, urging institutional dialogue and technical preparation to move forward.
