We believe that achieving a uniform legal order, as the European Union order, is nothing new at international level, as long as at the basis of what today is forming the European Union law, we find several international treaties concluded under the existing regulations of international law. In this respect, we are considering, first of all, the three founding Treaties of the European Communities, which, from the point of view of international law, have at least three fundamental features, namely: firstly, they express the legal bond between member states of the Communities; secondly, they constitute an organized assembly of legal rules; thirdly, documents developed under these treaties, by bodies empowered in this regard, have legal effects in the states parties.
