really the realities were at some point, the united states made the calculation that we needed west germanyas a dependable ally against our former ally, the soviet union, and it was really just a calculation of trying to appease the germans. the germans turned against the allied war crimes program really, really aggressively. at the time of the nuremberg trial or the international tribe tribunal. the germans were sympathetic or expressed -- perhaps they were too -- cowardly to express actual views but in polls by the american they expressed support for the nuremberg trial. when the additional trials were conducted. ones andy was scrubbing, then the germans felt the allies are rubbing our face in our crimes elm want to make a transition to a democratic society. obviously, in making that transition to a democratic society, there are tremendous number of former nazis who continued to occupy positions of power, particularly within the legal apparatus of west germany. and those persons had very little incentive to support an aggressive war crimes program so so once the soviet union emerged as th

in 1951, a total of six countries, france, belgium, west germany, lux endburg and holland created theater introduced the european economic community, the eec in 1958. these two organizations are seen as the origin of the modern european union that would not adopt the new name until 1993. six decades later, the european union represents more than half a billion people across 28 countries and with a common currency, the euro, generating an estimated 14 trillion euros in gdp a year. the premise? countries who are economically linked are less likely to have conflicts, but it is not a totally happy marriage for many countries as some are affected differently by world events. there'd been arguments over financial regulations, bailouts, and different approaches to migration. this has given rise to anti-eu parties across europe with many calling for their countries to withdrawal from arguably the world's most powerful union. >> ahead in the newsroom, severe weather on boast coasts, fema announcing they'll provide help to parts of west virginia underwater. california, high temperatures, dry wi

germany. you know, the east german and west german separation ended, and the two countries were unified early in the 1990s. so there's now one germany again, there aren't two, but in the east, which was a communist part of the eastern european block, that party was called the socialist unity party, sed, sozialistische einheitspartei, and that party dissolved, but large numbers of it moved also into this linke. so it's a coalition. in the eastern part--this is something americans tend n n to know f for reasons having to do with our newspapers and our media--in eastern europe, in eastern germany the mass of people still vote for that party. so that party runs a number of the regional governments. in germany, they don't call them states like we do, 50 states. they call them laender, lands. so many of the laender in eastern part of germany are governed by this die linke party now, and increasingly, they've become powerful in the west. as i said, the last national election, they got 11.9% of the vote. 1 out of 8 germans votes for a party, one of whose slogans is "germany can do better than capitali
