The above said Grand Masters finally established an agreement, named “Treaty of Arezzo”, whose wording was laid down during the assembly, following the wise thoughts of M.W. Bro Nikolaus Ehrenfired Schmidt who chaired and coordinated the whole international Masonic meeting.
This document was endorsed upon on conclusion of the assembly.
The “Treaty of Arezzo” is the foundation stone of this new Masonic Body and its content shall prevail over any future provision in the Statutes and Regulations, in case of controversy or contradiction.
