since we have so few symbols in europe, strasbourg is surely an appropriate symbol of unification andeace. and the parliament would be crazy not to take advantage of the possibilities of this town as its seat. even if the european union remains simply an economic union, it has already achieved a lot. but if it remains only economic, if it does not enter into the hearts of the people, if there is no common belief, it will run aground. narrator: these cultural foundations will be crucial to the success of the european union. translator: i am from naples, and i am completely, thoroughly neapolitan. yet i have decided to spend my life in strasbourg. i will spend all my life here. it feels good here. i have a lot of friendhe, and this environment, the european atmosphere, which is so much a part of strasbourg, suits me perfectly. narrator: further economic unification continued in 2002 with the adoption of a common currency, the euro. but, as economic, political and cultural unification proceeds, will the europeans be able to maintain their national and cultural identities? many still feel

the initiative to help identify the commemoration to make this evening happen and to effectuate a unification award ceremony. in a moment i will ask christian and davis to take over the meeting. i couldn't pass up the opportunity to share my feelings and thoughts here now as we begin this ceremony and as we talk about this anniversary of the march on washington and on several occasions today i heard parts of the speech. at one point, i was in a venue where the entire speech was played. it's really amazing that some of these words that were spoken 50 years ago resonate today. also it was amazing and i think many who were there would agree the very few would have thought that on the 50th anniversary of that march, that the president of our state, an african american would be in that spot commemorating this event. we are going to continue to do that work. the san francisco human rights commission is also almost 50 years old. the discussions that were part of the march on washington are what led to the same discussions to the founding of the human rights commission 50 years ago. we are entering t

[laughter] right before the german unification, there were similarities in germany at that time to compareo the situation in taiwan? i'm not suggesting that taiwan will unify with china. the issue regarding the relations with the biggest neighbor you have, was that a dominant issue in germany at that time? >> i still remember in the beginning of 1989, there were protests in east germany. we actually do have relatives in east germany. i visited them with my mother at that time. my mother's family had fled east germany. she told those relatives, go on and stand up for what you think is right. if you go on like this, in 10 years, the wall might fall down. it did not even last 10 months, and it still happened. i think this just shows you that sometimes history is moving in giant leaps. you cannot predict this area -- this. the situation of divided germany -- when you look at the historical context, there's a lot of similarities to taiwan. but there are also a lot of differences. it is useful for taiwanese to look at the way this is handled, but not take it as a 100% blueprint from germany. >>

she is a woman so he gave her a cabinet post in the first unification cabinet basically that was herpring board. >> rose: you said this is a relationship forged in crises. >> we mean the european debt crises which dominated her second term which started for four years now. and i think the point of that is that she along with the rest of europe faced unprecedented situation that really put created europe, as we know it, into jeopardy. >> rose: but most people i know and we've done a lot of programs about the subject of what's happening to the euro zone believe that she favors austerity and believes that germany will be called on to rescue, and it has time after time. but she does not want to do it until she's pushed to at the last moment. but that's her modus operandi. >> the internal workings of that are she's also very deliberative and she likes to weigh her options and i think we explain a bit and she says this herself it's due to the fact she's not a politician by, you know, professionally if you'd like. she's a physicist and she looks at the world in this kind of experimental way

i think this is an opportunity to maybe start putting an end to that and maybe a unification of the republican party. so admittedly, we have our own growing pains and we have some things we need to work out among the far arch conservative right wing of our party and i think this is part of that process, as painful as it is, but it is necessary. >> and let me ask you quickly, because while washington is talking about shutting down the government, there are some new diplomatic fronts opening up on syria and iran. you're a former marine, former fbi special agent. two weeks ago the country was preparing to go to war it seemed like to strike syria and show iran we were serious about red lines. today we have a deal in place to get rid of syria's chemical weapons and iran's new leaders are sending signals they're willing to curb their nuclear program. does it matter how we got here if this really happens? how are you feeling about this now? >> no. as long as it happens. look, whenever you can avert war, that's a good thing. as a combat veteran, i can tell you no good ever comes out of war. there are

documents and policy papers coming out washington and london one of the biggest fears is is is the unification of a lot of the shia regime so you've got the iraq regime you've got iran and then you've got syria syria is the other white and other whites a minority strain not really considerate of this ustream with a certain the swing more towards not side than they do the sudanese the effectively you've got these three states in the region planning to team up and basically divert that not to resources. to other powers but their own for their own benefit for the benefit of the not for the benefit of the united states in the west right so this is a very significant warming the moment and one of the key issues. for the doctors. states in the middle east is really maintaining access to the region oil and gas supplies and the key to doing that is maintaining the stability of the persian gulf states and obviously that includes iraq that also includes saudi arabia. and this is something that is repeatedly described in declassified documents or that come out in this very important role of maintaining t

culture with regard to human being so i have to say that with pope francis i see very much of a unification of sort of the two sides catholicism if you even want to call it that where there's people who are concerned about social justice issues people who are concerned about social issues and i really see the confluence of the two in him so i actually see him having a very unifying effect among catholics as opposed to a divisive effect you know i think so too and and i'm hearing that more and more and you. are year ago if you didn't attribute it to the pope if you were to say any of those things to any commentator on fox news they'd immediately start screaming communism drive you off. and in fact there are people who are saying that about this pope you know how dare he talk about social justice you know that it's wrong to put profits above people if you don't put profits if you don't have profits at the top of the food chain you don't have capital it's. you know again i just think that when people are looking at pope francis they're seeing what he's doing when he's going out into these crow

vote out a government that is the most ineffective, backwards looking, most fractious unit since unification. >> to be fair, the last government or the current government, you should say, one of the biggest challenges was to tackle the euro crisis and angela merkel devoted a lot of her efforts to attend meetings in brussels and elsewhere to prevent the taxpayers' money. there is a lot of criticism surrounding her austerity measures and people are taking to the streets to protest against it. but take a listen to what she had to say about that phenomenon. >> translator: when i go to greece or to portugal, people there are allowed to demonstrate against me. they will not be arrested when i leave. they have freedom of opinion, freedom of press, and freedom to travel and freedom of religion in the whole of europe. >> now, it tells you something, ross, about the lack of real differentiation on key elements in the parties. but a real focus is about personalities, about characteristics. angela merkel is held in very high esteem here. she has certain behaviors that have been elevated in this campaign
