not worse than the left party you have both pseudo toted totalitarian. democratic anti west anti nato anti european parties and i don't agree with me i just come back to the question of the unification and the success of reunification ality hernot has said that in many ways east and west absolutely have integrated and converge but michel if we look at surveys recent surveys we see significant divergences in political attitudes for example one survey shows a great deal less support for democracy itself in the east than in the west i think it's 42 percent of east germans said they're enthusiastic about democracy compared with 75 percent of west germans too what do you attribute that kind of divergence and in fact less than half support in east germany for the system itself
