Received this today, it appears that from the meeting of the Grand Lodges of Austria, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany and Switzerland have put out the Declaration of Basel:
Two major points that were highlighted:
1) All five Grand Lodges have decided to withdraw recognition from the Grande Lodge Nationale Francaise
2) The Grand Lodges have called on teh Grand Lodge de France to "step up to the plate", from the declaration:
"The five Grand Lodges believe therefore, that there is an historic chance for the Grand Lodge de France to realise its aspiration assuming all the necessary choices are complied with, especially the need
- to continue work in accordance with the fundamental principles of regular freemasonry.
- to sever unambiguously remaining links with irregular Obediences
- to respect the international customs and traditions governing the relation between a Grand Lodge and a Supreme Council"
While not a surprise, interesting enough.
