Eef, I think I have the reason because Andorra wants more land:
according a popular joke, the Primer Minister of Andorra said some
years ago: “We will never declare the war against USA: we are a very
small country and we have no enough land to put all the prisoners we
would make”.

Well, I have a little more information, from the book “Manual de
derecho público español”, written by Manuel Díaz de Velasco. He
explains that the immemorial boundary was reflected between 1856 and
1863 in a notarial act, when a mixt commission Andorra-Spain, with some
villagers, installed boundary markers. An hipotetical treaty of limits
never existed.

Marcel

Marcel, thanks a lot for your information: your evidence seems clear
enough:
the tripoint is exactly on the spot of portella blanca. That what
France and
Spain agreed upon. Why does Andorra believe the tripoint is more to the
south making their country a bit larger?
And: I didn't see a trace of the monument you mentioned (
http://www.fam.ad/eurorando/006.htm ). Apparently not yet placed.

vriendelijke groet, Eef Berns
