Rhine River He invited Weizsaecker to visit East Germany a presidential spokesman and the East German news agency ADN said The visit by Honecker 75 was the first by an East German head of state to

their fundamental differences The underlying issue of reunification is a goal enshrined in the West German constitution but East Germany which seeks full diplomatic recognition by Bonn opposes the idea Kohl promised to complain to Honecker about East Germany’s standing order to its border guards to shoot citizens attempting to flee to across d the fenced and border with West Germany Another
