10:16 pm
tried to breach at risk death the secretly plan construction of the wall and it's sudden fall all preceded by. something like a countdown size does not include in numerous personal accounts, diary entries and letters showed the true extent of the division of germany after the war. a big commemorative year has reached its skirt and wants to meet 50 years since the beginning of the war. 40 years of the federal republic and the ged are the $200.00 anniversary of the french revolution. i am against revolutions, so much is destroyed in those years of, of people. my own we have my diary to rent and raven about this legitimate states and its people, servants i want to travel. the world is so big
10:17 pm
really guess on this. this one's what right does the government have to imprison entire people? the, the berlin wall was soon a thing of the past. just a few days after its fall in november 1989, the 155 kilometers of once ominous reinforced concrete, became a cory for souvenir hunters. once the coffin, david coughing the memo of a vague vice,
10:18 pm
each lation. yeah. was it really involved was the symbolic expression of the cold war to the rest of the world. and it stood for the confrontation between the major powers all ends to a certain extent, while it represented the divided europe, one ends all found. and in this respect, of course, the fall of the walls was also symbolic. and provided images that people could identify with the money where everyone shouted, hurrah until i left was operated on the morning of november 9th, 1989. hardly any one could have imagined that the berlin wall would soon be history the exactly one year before the fall of the wall. the cold war was still firmly anchored in the minds of people on both sides. the berlin wall was part of every day life west berliners were used to leaving the city via transit routes through the g d. r. of
10:19 pm
the the, the west had implicitly accepted the g d r. and with it, the berlin wall, the topic of a re, unified germany was not really on the agenda for politicians on either side. when people find you don't find it was often talk of even if occasion and some nice features. so can you meet with nobody? seriously believes in health conditions and it wasn't anywhere and cited as i see people thought the g d or was very stable. he that's go comically speaking. it was relatively for the east of uh, there was no sign of anything changing this function. so he's in the late 19 eighties, the berlin wall was literally insurmountable. the large gray bulwark consisted of several barriers and alarm systems. despite this escape attempts were made time and again, usually with fatal results, the westwood reacts with angry headlines and stoppages of financial loans to the east. in the ged our plans were in the works for high tech update sensor technology
10:20 pm
and electronics to replace nervous border guards. they were obviously aiming to take out the human factor. nobody would need to observe no view. you would have to select trouble with the would react as if the house are being invaded by burglars. but of course it's about people try to escape the house not to break into it. even at the end of the 1980s, east. germany's a c d. regime wanted to maintain the facade at the ged our success. the small country tried to convince the west that it was one of the world's leading industrial nations. this is done. the problem was that they themselves believed that they understood the people that they, themselves were among the people that they were loved and respected by the people. that was the problem. conflict gosh, it's designed to as items put in, they genuinely believed that they had built the best of all systems to even if it
10:21 pm
wasn't perfect was the only system that could possibly obtain perfection. and i think that was very much how they felt, but the system was unresponsive and i'm stuck. ready ready photographer did my reading on, documented the feeling of a nursing in his country for him life and the g. d. r. health, no prospects. in january, 1986, he and his family applied for permanent resettlement in the federal republic of germany. the under can i start a new diary, stuff to some cold this morning. i talked to 2.2 tons, which we are entitled to annually from the street into the garden. and then shuffles into the seller, the one and the coveted heating material. that's very welcome to on videos or i'm expecting or exits, permits any day. now,
10:22 pm
troy and it's to us to do this. unplug krista talk to each wide open field, and i was the 1st person to make this request for. and that was one of many, many, many, and it was also clear to me is that i was now when the enemy of the ged, or does, and that's, that's a thought process and motion for me on cassette the basically, we are living in total. i can a be a leave, nothing that's moving here with the fake costs. since 1975, it had been legal to leave the ged or for the west. that was the year erica shantika agreed to the final act of the helsinki accords on security and cooperation. granting his citizens the right to freedom of movement. that's why it isn't one of them. he told you the massage of a peak, that type of thing. so it's at least most on them for, you know, for those of us tend to go on the c drive in ours and for the date that the patient is inside. one can see in the 1980s that the number of applications to leave the
10:23 pm
country massively increased. and of course more applications to leave were approved me for the cd regime. this was a way of releasing pressure to a certain extent to me and give us. i'd like to look up to last. the border crossing at berlin's fate extra as a station became one of the most famous. it was known as the palace of tears because it was here, the ged, or citizens leaving the country had to bid farewell to loved ones. applicants to leave often waited years for decision and were subjected to mass of harassment. in the meantime, the indians to go yeah, in the 1980s it became increasingly clear where the difficulties of the ged are legs, how the combination of restriction and surveillance combined with economic difficulties which are created a kind of tipping point. where more and more people said no, we're not going along with it. that's not your mind destination. but the real
10:24 pm
threat to the ged cars power structure did not come from within. it came from aust out in 1985 michelle gorbachev was elected general secretary of the communist party of the soviet union. he was determined to reform the communist system, the guarantor for c. and in, in the soviet union ended with the election of gorbachev who was from a much younger generation and bringing change to a system that knew it had change. his guiding principles work last noticed, which translates as open ended perestroika for restructuring corporate job wanted far reaching social reform. this meant admitting that the communist way as it stood, was outdated. as moscow is a little brother, the ged are felt betrayed and reacted with panic. when the, the old god within the city realized what was going on in russia, for instance,
10:25 pm
like band russian publications, from being available inside east germany because they were afraid of infection spreading this as political change to cold soviet magazines published in german and the g. d. r or strictly censored, the journalist ingrid e bear from forest in brandenburg was an avid reader of the soviet magazine. sputnik published by the international russian news agency, university. sputnik brought a touch of glass most to the g. d. r. until november, 18th, 1988. the sputnik husband band landing from the soviet union means learning how to win. or maybe know taft or old. l came to visit . you wanted to know what i thought about spot think being banned. and what i thought about the political situation, i found that very strange and try to steer our conversation to other topics.
10:26 pm
the, the brandenburg gate, a unique symbol of the division of germany and the city of berlin with gorbachev at the helm in moscow. western powers hopes that the time was right to address the question of the war. but when us president ronald reagan deliberately chose the brandenburg gate as the backdrop for a speech to moscow on june 12th 1987. not all politicians in the west were pleased . general secretary gorbachev did you see peace if you seek prosperity for the show via union in eastern europe, if you seek liberalization. come here to this gate. mister gorbachev opened this gates visited me that you
10:27 pm
cared, don't this in his speech. it was under, it was frank, some people at the time. so it was night, which it probably in the sense was he came out like likes to the little boy who caesar, the amber has no clothes. he came out and said, one is all the why, why do we still have this? that was probably, that was brought to me is that the majority of west german society had long since turned his attention to powers, london, new york, or wherever away from the east, which was no longer on the political agenda for 3 months after reagan speech. at the brandon for a gate s e d leader s h, tony car traveled to west germany for a state visit official protocol provided for a motorcycle escort with only 7 instead of the usual 15 bikes. the honor guard
10:28 pm
for hanukkah was also somewhat scale down from the standard as this came from don was so it already started there is honeycutt greeted in bond like a head of state of a sovereign state. and according to which protocol that is, that was a lot of discussion about that. and it was only half a state visit to boss, have officially, it was a working visit because the federal republic had not officially recognized the g d r as a state. and so the basic loss is good on the way you want that special education. monica ignored the subtleties of protocol and use the visit to showcase has states sovereignty. chancellor, helmut kohl remain diplomatic and did not mention the wall. yeah, the machines agency of detroit and i'm going to live in often vega, the ship fixed indigo once. if i had in 1989,
10:29 pm
a young east berlin or put the claims of the c d regime to the test 20 year old chris guest. roy took a risk and climbed over the wall. 10 bullets were fired at him. he became the walls last victim. d d, the void the ged are always wanted to be perceived as a sovereign, great state in the world community and such terrible incidents. so she didn't fit that image coldness of the generated bad press. and so at some point the c d leadership said this has to stop. it's giving us such a bad press. we won't get any more loans to the to me. um, shortly after, on april 28th 1989, the vin administer for state security efforts milka revoked the order to shoot at the wall. i want to say something, comrades, if you're going to shoot you spun,
10:30 pm
you'll have to do it in such a way that the person in question doesn't get away. the comment stays with us. yes, that's the thing is what's the point of firing 70 shot? and then he runs over to the other side and they launch a huge campaign, and the other one times were more revolutionary. it wasn't so bad, but now there are new times inside. we have to take that into account. even then the wall seemed a terminal in the spring of 1989, the number of applications for x. it permits continued to rise each month and there was still no freedom of travel. the permits were seen more as an arbitrary, active mercy. in april 1989 ingrid ebert and her husband applied for a permit to visit the federal republic of germany. wilford's mother will be 70 years old and may she invited us to vote, spoke with submitted an application and had to go to the district police office. what followed was like an interrogation. what do you do in your free time?
10:31 pm
do you collect coins? what are the children's day when you travel? beautifully answered every question, just kept our heads down on top of that and if you needed a specific reason, you needed a specific invitations if it was for a limited period of time. but you had to apply to the authorities to be able to make this trip. and the application could be refused for any reason. the fate of the berlin wall was decided hundreds of kilometers away in the spring of 1989. on may 2nd hung gary and general announced a depressed conference that the border fortifications between hungry and austria would be dismantled, with spectacular consequences. one to have each by means i thought something is really changing here. if the ged or is no longer at the joints of prison, it always was a now they're being forced them to let people out. so if he calls that's the writer,
10:32 pm
walter compels had spent 6 years in prison before he was able to please to the west in 1956. at the beginning of may 1989, he follows the events and hungry with astonishment. pictures from hungry with border fences are being dismantled. 6 photographers snapped the hun gary and soldiers as they cut the barbed wire without any emotion. they are the same soldiers who normally guards the border. they say the news of the hole in the iron curtain was censored in the g d r instead and g d r news broadcast s c d leadership basked in the glow of made a celebrations deep mile re mon suspected it would be his last may day. in the g d r, he took his camera along to photo grass. everything was good to have
10:33 pm
experienced once again and concentrated form, devotion, or submission of an embarrassingly broad mass of the ged or population towards the router's dismayed is clear from me again and again. nothing will change socially in this country for a very long time to come to wash and vacuum was already gone during those 4 years of waiting for the exit permit. and on the inside bill, i was no longer a citizen of this country. this in the meantime angered ebert and her husband had obtained a travel permit to visit his mother and wolf spurred in west germany. they arrived there on the afternoon of may 7th, the very day the ged, or had scheduled an election. the we sit in front of the tv in the evening. we look forward to the election results and place bets, then the results, 98.85 percent of all valid boats in favor of proven togetherness,
10:34 pm
strong socialism and secure peace. this feeling who here the local elections in the ged, or were known as going to fold a cynical allusion to the yes only voting system. but in may 1989 evidence of s e d. electoral fraud came to light for the 1st time. at least 7 percent of voters had courageously voted. no. distrust of those in power was everywhere. tommy's principality does visor, they didn't question the electoral system in principles. but said my god, what so bad of 10 or 15 percent? maybe 20 percent of the population is it can state without getting you would still have a huge approval rating energies and switch to the hosp protests here. and there, with very few people were involved in such a actions as the name of friends have great respect for those who openly expressed
10:35 pm
their displeasure. there was nothing in our mailbox again, psychologically we're in a pretty desperate situation at the moment. would you say no fi visa? let's divide it then it goes to see a comrade from the cd standing in front of our house during the last election that's built. so i, we would like to ask you to go to the polio that's going to be explained by us. we've been waiting for over 3 years to leave the country, just the one that it still hasn't been approved. i said it's nice, of course we're not going through your election. well, then he left it to you. got com for more than 7000 kilometers away from berlin. tensions were escalating. at the beginning of june, they erupt it in the most brutal mass murder of dissidents under a communist regime. in a long time, chinese troops opened fire on students demonstrating on tenements square in beijing, 4 days after the bloody crack down that claimed thousands of lives. the ged are
10:36 pm
finally issued a statement supporting the chinese government, the co op, and it's in the folks come much to invest the deputies of the people's chamber. note that in the current situation, thoughts the political solution to internal problems persistently sought by the party and state and leadership of the people's republic of china and for the has been prevented bluetooth as a result of the violent and letting riots of and the constitutional element as well as the reactions to pull up your own in east germany to a gentleman. square massacre was indeed in retrospect a strange one. i think there were people inside the regime, particularly in the military and secret police operations, who would have been capable of that kind of thing. and it could look like a stretch at this point, the cd regime was still trying to show strength. but the opposition in east germany
10:37 pm
was becoming increasingly courageous. to alleviate the pressure, the ged are issued more and more exit permit. and the number of new applications grew by leaps and bounds from week to week. the after years of deliberation, the who's now also want to leave the g to your just not yet clear how they will do it. the choices between applying to leave or seen, the exit viruses spreading like an epidemic among the people of the ged or it's beginning to border on hysteria and certainly not enough. the hungry, more and more east germans gathered at the border with austria more than $20000.00, had already made it across the border. according to reports from gary and border officials sent back any east german citizen. they caught as they were obliged to do
10:38 pm
so. but the successful attempts inspired many, the ged or regime reacted with stubborn silence the hundreds leave the country every day. the scary thing is the silence in on use broad costs all as well with weld on use paper pages of sort of success stories. how long can we continue to sweep fill, send to the rug? well, the eyes of those in power. where of that is let's see, for some of the extra cost as it shows on the option bureau to clean away you will get your lesson about what happened that summer will always have this so called democratic central ism, which the communist had devised on their drawing boards of power now crumbled at their feet on the golf. i should be our current about 20 go was seriously ill. he was unable to act, and his assistants were unable, politically,
10:39 pm
unable or unwilling, and also not courageous enough to make decisions and chide on to cover. on august 19th, over $500.00 east german split on mass across the hungarian border, forces and hungry had announced a symbolic cross border picnic together with the pan european union. the austrian hung gary and border was opened for 3 hours. a decision with far reaching consequences. these impressive images travelled around the world. the news from hungry encouraged people in the g. d. r. on september 4th 1989. the 1st of the monday demonstrations took place in leipzig at the time, live sick photographer martin nauman, was out in about in the city center with his camera. he wasn't on assignment, but he had a hunch. he was saying history in the making the
10:40 pm
mass pres for peace and the saint nicholas church. after leaving the church, the participants carried banners demanding freedom of travel and calling for the change in society. state security tore down the banners a few days later in hungry. the cage door finally opened the hun, gary and government decided to allow g d. r citizens to leave for the west without consulting moscow or east berlin. first, my stomach pains or signal. i can't go on like this. i want to get out. i want to close my eyes and ears. a screen shot to toll out or even leave stumped again. is it better to sleep? escaped the only way the people suddenly realized that, okay, the wall might be from edible, stale,
10:41 pm
and people must still being shot. trying to get over it, so you don't why, why, why i'm trying go over the wall. why even bother to have faith papers? why bother to put in an official, a application to leave the country when you can just go hungry and move across the border into austria from the go wherever you want. and the well, the deep mile reminds departure to the west was finally approved in september. after the long wait, he sold his house and with his family left everything behind. today we were able to make the last official and unofficial trips said good bye to my mother in the afternoon. tomorrow we crossed the in their german border across the berlin wall, saying good bye to run, store to our house is very, very difficult for me. we've done shouldn't be kind. so he thought that the border guard stood there. there was the seat. that's the word. said left us for we settler,
10:42 pm
i've never heard the term before this unless they believed it would all go on forever. and of course, that's what seemed really i think the police are in addition to the hon, gary and border, it was now possible to officially apply for asylum at west german embassies in warsaw, budapest, or pro sue. these embassies were completely full at the embassy in prague. thousands began camping out in the garden and hallways. unlike the hungarian government, the czech republic was reluctant to make decisions that went against the g. d. r. west german foreign minister hon dietrich, ensure negotiated the solution. the 6, 14 am eyes and mouth sticky from crying. during the night the germans in prague were
10:43 pm
allowed to leave its estimated. there were 7000 of them. it was moving. tears came automatically of every thing is in a state of flux. what was on think about just a few months ago is now happening. so i act lots of widows, me, it was clear that it wouldn't go on like this boy to the ged or didn't wanted to go on like this either. because the latest figures on tv every evening were about the ged, or, and always caused internal unrest. and you won't have to let them leave the phone. but then came up with a completely crazy idea of rooting the trains back via dressed. and so via the ged or such was of course absurd. who's opposite? what on the night of october 1st, several trains that had been locked shot travel to hole in west germany just over the check border. but the ged are ordered such trains to be rerouted through east germany, so that the regime could officially grant exit permits. travelers, identity cards were confiscated on groups. some people tried to jump on the trains
10:44 pm
as they passed by. 4 days later, another train traveling from the prague embassy passed through the g d r. and the situation escalated, police court into off, dressed in central station to prevent people from forwarding, the train waiting there. but the crowd storm the station. things were changing quickly. that very night. cd district, the leader hans mode row asked for lynn for how sushi always do move in full in busy. this was happening at the moment when the army general in berlin was having a dress rehearsal for the parade. on october 17th, i didn't see no the solution to the scene, so they couldn't understand that. we were worried, i argued with auto onto and said auto let's the trains go, divides us and through fed. and you said the topic decided we're both responsible
10:45 pm
for avoiding a catastrophe here. neither of us can decide anything anymore in charge of the advisors. they can see how soon people were throwing stones and dressed in the police, use the water cannons, but were unable to end the riots by force. meanwhile, in berlin, they were preparing for the ged are as big birthday party for the use of the gi. tens of thousands of left the country in the last weeks and months, tens of thousands take to the streets. monday off to monday, that hanukkah held a use march as a powerful declaration. last night's torch street procession in berlin was just self delusion. gorbachev had now arrived in east berlin for the celebrations. in the summer, the soviet reformer had overruled the impression of the doctrine of 1969, which permitted the use of the military. if socialism was threatened. all warsaw pact, countries were now free to go their own way. yeah,
10:46 pm
the way up was supposed to look up what city high you don't need to get with that unit. by the end of september, i see the leader home, a car was back at the home demonstrative lead displaying his power. but he felt betrayed by gorbachev. the once you've been on a delegation like that, suffice you know, for sure that they have nothing more to say to each other, lost a ged or was on a current issue on god. but it's not with gorbachev either. has it mode you could see from that and see what the mood was like over there when key largo by the time the vin came the 40th anniversary of the g. d r i the jubilee celebration event on october 7th of all days. what i thought they were riots and protest
10:47 pm
demonstrations in east berlin in front of the public and the world press a decent boot. these images immediately went around the world of tests. in fact, as they do a riots not only in east berlin, but also in 50 other cities, there were demonstrations against se, the rule on october 7th. at the saint nicholas church, very young, right? police officers stand face to face with the demonstrators trying to talk to them. why are you here? the police officers are embarrassed and you can see that they are scared me. one of i'm well, i could no longer reconcile that with my conscience. and i was deployed as a tier go skinner offices. then i went and said that i wasn't reliable for the job as to those because i couldn't reconcile it morally with my conscience. the it's
10:48 pm
a they specifically said to us now on monday morning on the 9th. the demonstrators don't stand a chance today. we have enough power. today we have enough equipment today. we end the whole thing. on october 9th, after monday's prayers for peace, 70000 people took to the streets and live sick. if this new cat had sounded the combat alert the army was on standby, the visa is a situation in leipzig, was highly explosive, because the state wanted to put an end to all these demonstrations. mark le berg is yeah, they had pulled together the riots. police, such as complex squads from the national people's army, and from out of the complex squads weren't even showing up anymore. but she's kind of when they tried to give out munition to the right. so easy to what they said, we want to take it. but actually won't shoot as her own people in the munition. and
10:49 pm
if she's thinking of the item and lloyd october 9th was the turning point. they were seen, did not intervene. the masses chanted, we are the people. some members of the police even joined the march. they say yesterday 70000 people demonstrated a live 6 erie the silence. it meant the crowds, some noises from time to time, the chance and then intermittent silence like after air rage, the crashing of beams, just in shouts. despite the clause already mentioned deep, and it was somehow clear to everyone who was paying attention that now the chinese card would not be played for us on something else would happen. built in the days that followed people throughout east germany felt their fear dissolved.
10:50 pm
thousands took to the streets and loudly demanded freedom. the right to self governance. and the removal of the c d. leadership change was in the air. on october 18th, the se, the leadership in berlin reacted removing erica shawnee car from office to successor, eagle on the fence announced his intention to reform the g. d r but people were no longer buying it. on november, 4th 1989, berlin was the scene of the largest demonstration in the history of the g. d. r. the state security service was nervous. a hastily drafted travel law, had drawn fury. people no longer wanted to be patronized. i've never seen images like the ones you saw in the news from the g d on today, half a 1000000 people were on the featured bed and i wanted to be that to be part of it . it's no longer about respond. revolution is the order of the day
10:51 pm
the, the 5 off each box, the people were now demanding the dismissal of egon prince. the cd strategy had failed. on november, 4th, gunter chabot skis, secretary of the central committee of the cd was booed in berlin. neva, the, the young man that's good for me in trouble of ski. we then had the meeting which about ski and he said, by the way, we want to give people freedom of trouble. and i asked, do you know what that means for your country? oh oh yeah, well he said 150000 people might leave the country as i thought was his assessment on to dennis of all food on done. and then we talked about the practical
10:52 pm
preparations they had made for the central the coffin and the thought was 0. that's one way. the morning of november 9th, 1989. begin like any other day. and berlin, with small provocations at the wall on the western side, torres climbed the observation towers to get a glimpse of the east. in the ged our preparations were under way for an international press conference. gunter sh about a tried to answer journalist questions about the new travel lost his big mistake. he had not yet read the revised draft to them. the task of us and his alicia. this time on part of the show, the strength of minor kendra special for one particular 40. it's why that's enough . oh, good. come when that follow up question comes and it's yes, right away. immediately. it set something in motion that he can crash as was in kansas. and this big guy, otherwise he couldn't have gone home that night. how is it for spend one to invent,
10:53 pm
which is only there to see, discover that as the actions have opened the border, and as walton is. shortly after the evening news, people began to storm the border crossings at foreign homer street. several 1000 people demanded to cross into west berlin, but the lease told them they needed a visa one get most of the pen gun and it gets out to us by them. i know part of our thoughtful, according to lieutenant colonel diego c, the head of the border checkpoint and vincent there were at least 10000 people there. on the one hand he was worried about defense. and so because a crowd like that with destroying everything, and on the other hand, until he was annoyed because they had called the ministry for state security and
10:54 pm
couldn't get a proper answer because they were celebrating or busy with something else. and then finally, the pressure became so great that he thought he'd opened up yet. so then he said, we're letting out the flood, who gets at around $1120.00 the wall was opened on born homer street. all controls were suspended, and people simply walked over to west berlin. the 1 10 am stationed interrupts for special events like orson welles, amazing, unbelievable. this is the re unification. police get flowers thrust in their hands for a group picture that's relaxed. all right? no passport, no id, just walk through the turbulent day. they were dramatic scenes that police stations. there's
10:55 pm
a huge q of people at the state bank to exchange their 15 us marks for 15 deutsch marks for the trip west. i use the whole roll of film are the 2 vs came home from school around midday. he ran in that was one very excited, 9 year old. and then he proudly laid his notebook on the table and said, from the west, the wall has broken. totally insane. you might have to of long stomach evictions as obviously nobody expected the wall to be gone in the morning today. many people claim they knew, but that's how it is with history. and she's in hindsight, there were always many prophets for it. and i woke up in the morning, went down to buy a newspaper. and there was this thing the people streaming through the brother mall deep mar, raymond, had only been in bavaria where he now lived with his family. for 2 weeks,
10:56 pm
he photographed the west and felt uprooted again, watching in disbelief. he was stunned by the events in his former homeland and berlin. people are still dancing on the wall as if drunk with happiness. the brandenburg gates is also to be reopened on november 10th, so called for woodpeckers for already selling broken pieces of concrete. from what is probably the world's most famous german structure at the tourist souvenirs to we are sitting on the sidelines. i feel awful. in the spring of 1990, the most colorful parts of the berlin wall were sold at an auction in monte carlo for an average of $12000.00 each. the. it is astonishing how something which is actually a serious and deadly work of engineering and consuming an enormous amount of material. schumann and foot unclosing and numerous suffering and over 20 is,
10:57 pm
can suddenly devolve into kitch, a kind of commercial product. it is a lesson in how quickly people can forget. something was, was so dominant, so terrifying the world had literally changed overnight when the brandenburg gate was opened in december 1989, it was largely symbolic. just one year later, germany was re united, the,
