More important than today what does he mean by that. What he means obviously that this is something where you have to look at just why people are unhappy with the Current System that we have and just how much can you go with your criticism of a system he also in his speech earlier he referred to the anti corona demonstration he didnt name them but he meant that spirit of people questioning those restrictions that have been imposed by the German Government during the coronavirus pandemic which is leading to big rallies big demonstrations here in germany that are happening on a regular basis where people question very system whereas some people even question the existence and the legitimacy of the german democratic system as we see it at the moment and he says the peaceful revolution of 1909 so does that freedom and democracy are values that are worth fighting for and he said germany should be proud that it managed to bring down a dictatorship with a peaceful revolution. A recent rise in the populism lets listen it. Ignorant of historical facts must be who would raise the black white and red flag of the german empire of 871. 00 or even the battle flag in front of the democratically elected parliament. If they wanted different country authoritarian and aggressively exclusionary they are part of a tradition that doesnt stand for our republic or our democracy today we stand firmly on the bedrock of a struggle for freedom and a history of democracy. Decidedly criticize those right wingers there waving imperial flags in front of the guy starts going to some background. Well those flags were flags that we saw during the latest corona and he coronavirus restrictions demonstrations that happened in several places in germany throughout the summer there are some under way also a place we can go where the vast majority of people who are demonstrating against the restrictions are peaceful and they are considered to be sort of not extremists but then there are Fringe Groups who have tried to also hijack this movement and some of these Fringe Groups are actually considered nazis neo nazis or right wing extremists and the latest demonstration that happened in berlin some of those were carrying those right flag which is a symbol from the name 1000. 00 century and which dates back to the german empire and then it was also used by the neo nazis started by the nazis between 19331985 before they adopted the swastika as their symbol which is why its a highly controversial flag but it is not banned and so this is what i was referring to it is important to note that in his speech it came up very clearly that hes thinking more along the lines when you talk about divisions in germany its no longer just east and west this is becoming. Something where the next generations are overcoming their differences but there are divisions within the german population and these lines go now along the lines of people who believe in democracy and people who dont and who question the very system that we have at the moment. Thank you. So this is of course an important day for germany german reunification mean for the rest of the world. Global correspondent so this historic event is huge in the countries there covering. Margaret thatcher wanted to prevent german reunification and all costs the former british Prime Minister believed a united germany would become too powerful well her efforts failed and the rest is history these days britons look with admiration at germany theyre asking themselves how germany handled the cove attend demick so much better and how they can learn from their neighbor on the continent. At the time some is very concerned at the thought of a reignited germany dominating once again the center of europe in light of the memories of the holocaust others said there was nothing to fear from of united germany in the years of to reunification germany and israel became close on many levels they do have to differences when it comes to the Israeli Palestinian conflict their relations are often described as a special relationship between both countries german reunification is widely viewed as a success here in south korea and for some inspiration for those that pursue engagement with the north former president kim dae jong made his berlijn declaration to reach out to north korea resulting in the 1st interpreted summit in 2000 and current president mungy and also chose berlin to lay out his peace strategy toward north korea resulting in a series of summits the reduced tension in the region. Im here in washington d. C. At the 2nd World War MemorialMany American soldiers their lives to fight nazi germany thousands of shiites who served investor money became ambassadors of what we used to know as the transatlantic relationship but the reliability of this partnership has changed dramatically and of the current government the narrative of president from germany doesnt pay its fair share in style mean that its in the discourse america 1st means for many to get out of would you lateral commitments and promote a very nationalistic foreign policy.

He will be out of commission for a few days for the election he will not be the white house insists out of commission as president of the United States meaning there will be no transfer of power to the Vice President for example according to the white house according to the Charm Campaign mr trump is perfectly fine even if it is handling his duties as president just fine now the campaign is a totally different matter this campaign is as it was in tatters its over the only thing what still happens in the trunk of pain is you see t.

Science. The. President talking you negotiated last parts of the german reunification contract in fact you wrote quite a significant chunk of it when you look around now 3 decades on is this what you expected. No fear but where in the world has anyone ever been able to imagine what is going to happen in the kurti years time space. Transom ive been there i said listen if you look at europe from the perspective of the year 914 that was the era of those who sleepwalked into world war 130 years after event was 944. And in these past 30 years to germany like the whole world was totally transformed skip the idea also there is no longer a leading world pound the defining of the world order for some time the United States of america appeared to be almost the only remaining superpower so that the world has become more diverse we could never have imagined back then how the east west conflict would come to an end but then it did in the miraculous leave without war without the deaths or with almost no deaths and yet that hasnt made the world a safer place instead we see that wars are possible once again only a few years later in the middle of your despair written or know you mentioned the United States there are you concerned that the us is withdrawing that no no longer wants a defined would have the world and so beautifully starkly mind no i wouldnt say that i limit ananda i mean we europeans for all of us oh the fortunate developments of the postwar era alternative at least for western and central europeans less so for Eastern Europeans who had a tougher time well these changes to the fact that the americans learned their lesson from the 1st world war as the period between the wars same leaks that stabilize europe to prevent a repetition. I mean. Who are tonight if you. Know the world has totally changed which is why the chancellor was correct in 2017 when she said we will need to take on a greater share of responsibility for our own security. But i hope that in the future we will continue to share common values the basic principles of Human Dignity democracy freedom the rule of law and i hope also ecological sustainability and social justice these are the common values and coalesce of a highly educated to dedicate minds of and we had to dismiss. The underside of fundamentally distinguish us as fundamentally for example from the very successful chinese model which today does hold Great Attraction but at the price of total control of the whole of economic social and political life and thats not our vision of how to live on this is that he wants the force of them thats why we must try to demonstrate the superiority of achilles full balanced in order based on ecological sustainability geo political stability and the principles of western palate is a step in the tate production all of them principally and their best. To be both and this could really highlighted we europeans cannot do that alone but we need to take the greater share more we take on responsibility and relevance in economic political military really the more we will influence debate also in america because of where relevant we play as larger role than if were not event that relevance in spirit of. The speech that indeed many were concerned 30 years ago that many are united could be too strong now many are calling for more leadership. And certainly being too cautious than. I dont. Find it stagnant about this fear of a stronger germany got a situation was a shit and all complicated there were of course very understandable constant searches in western europe and british Prime MinisterMargaret Thatcher was known to have. The Immediate Reaction from francois mitterrand was similar of course when the 1st few weeks after the fall of the berlin wall the most reliable supporting of europe for chancellor kohl would have actually came from the then spanish Prime Minister gonzales that would otherwise most of them were a bit cautious such as. The mice. So what kind of bus has this if they were wondering what it would mean 40 years after the 2nd world war and he is again a large east most populous nominally the strongest country in europe but that part relatively quickly especially because they understood that this unified germany is all the more reliable because it is a reliable partner and european integration of self interest towards. A polish foreign minister said in a speech not that long ago we used to feel the strength of germany today we rather fear the opposite you can still feel the enormous resistance in the german population and thus also in the Political Parties in germany including in parliament and yet we have to get used to the fact that others expect us to bear a fair share of the common. Combined some and last i dont feel. Down reunification is seen as a success at the same time the very populism that you mentioned that is very relevant particularly in the east what is it that politicians missed that. Talking about germany i would be a little cautious 1st of all the economic differences of the some smaller get out of this but the consequence is a clear for 40 years of social market economy one hand full integration into the European Union and the open world trade on the offer and on the other hand a socialist bureaucratic state economy which was just not as competitive. Disadvantage to lift up the not least because of this used to block the holes i learned it was not able to create Living Conditions for its citizens as well as a liberal order one side of the liberal whether including the social market economy to be superior to your business if i had to open up the markets of do you believe going to give me the t. V. Or not is lefty difference you can feel them all over europe people in poland the Czech Republic and back here or hungary didnt have it any easier than the people in east germany got himself an eclectic uppity mentioned. Dimension that only the people in the g. D. Did not have the opportunity to experience living together with people who come to our country from other parts of the world concert tour this is the of me through the integration was not that great in the west either we have more experience we also travelled a lot more in the world of the east german. Well theres this big men so its not surprising lot of people who are not used to immigration but i hope people from other cultures to work perhaps with a different skin color or a different religion can be more easily mobilized by populist slogan so that they can to mobilise erupt into a populist zipper board. Us and on this is and this does not only apply to the former east germany but take a look at the debates in the Czech Republic or lower income groups or if you cant blame people for that but i want to emphasize i. Also think that we now have the 3rd generation which people since the early 1960 s. His grandparents or maybe even more great grandparents came to germany from turkey and we still have considerable problems in many parts of western germany and thats why weve west germans shouldnt be arrogant towards germans. But quickly but it all starts id like to talk about russia present that in their putin feels that his country was tricked through germany for unification and the decades that followed what mistake the west make in dealing with moscow. Many memories for. Well you have to understand that the fall of the wall and the cold war theres a little less evasion restore a lot to do not only with the liberation of the slaves that were under soviet rule a very fluid there will 5 really good as a whole and Eastern Europe some of our interests when putin came to power he pursued a policy where to a certain extent he wanted to repair likely humiliation of soviet union people felt. He tried that in his only way soviet to do your
