berlin wall anniversary

berlin wall anniversary
The Berlin Wall was erected by the German Democratic Republic(GDR), and encircled the city of West Berlin, separating it from East Germany. The Inner German Border demarcated the border between East and West Germany. This Wall came to symbolize the Iron Curtain which symbolized both the ideological and physical boundary dividing Europe into two separate areas from the end of WWII to the end of the Cold War, in 1991. From 1961 and 1989, the Wall stopped emigration into West Germany. On November 9, 1989 the East German government announced that all GDR citizens could visit West Germany.
You got that right Teresa, World leaders past and present will be in Berlin today for the 20th anniversary of the fall of communist repression's most visible symbol: the 112-mile concrete wall that split the city for more than a quarter-century. Conspicuously absent: the president of the United States, Barack Obama. Obama's folks say he's too busy to accept German President Angela Merkel's invitation to attend today's festivities It's pathetic that Obama won't be there...0bama would never celebrate the destruction of communism. He considers it a day of mourning.
This just verifies how arrogant and narcissistic the Kenyan is.
