75 years of peace and freedom in the Benelux
During the Second World War, the foundation for future peace and freedom in the Benelux was laid. On 21 October 1943, during their exile in London, Ministers Spaak (Belgium), Van Kleffens (the Netherlands) and Bech (Luxembourg) signed the monetary agreement that would lead to the creation of the Benelux and which, in turn, would serve as a source of inspiration for the later European Economic Community (EEC).
 
Peace and freedom are vulnerable and may never be taken for granted. In Belgium, the Netherlands and in Luxembourg the tragedy of the Holocaust is commemorated each year on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, on 27 January. All countries have their own commemoration days as well. Belgium commemorates on 11 November (Armistice Day), the Netherlands on 4 May (Remembrance of the Dead) and Luxembourg on 10 October or the nearest Sunday, because the day also has a religious component.
