On the basis of a phenomenological chiral Lagrangian (SU (4) x SU (4)) the weak and electromagnetic interactions of mesons are described using a nonlinear realization of the gauge group SU (2)/sub L/ x U (1) in the Weinberg-Salam model. The final effective Lagrangian for the weak interactions of the mesons has the usual current x current structure. The charmed charged currents have the Cabibbo form, and the neutral currents satisfy the condition ..delta..S=0 (the GIM scheme).
