At the climax of the Cold War: The US President Ronald Reagan pointedly visited the Berlin Wall. It divided Berlin into East and West, and was an international symbol of communism. The photo shows the US President with the Mayor of Berlin, Eberhard Diepgen, the German Chancellor Helmut Kohl (left) and in the background his press spokesman Friedhelm Ost. Reagan stood behind bullet-proof glass, in order to be safe from sharpshooters from East Berlin. During a visit in 1987, Reagan demanded in front of the Brandenburg Gate: „Mr. Gorbatchev, tear down this wall!" For our article, see Ronald Reagan at 100 Years, by B. John Zavrel ...
