east germany. in 1955, the berlin commander , who had with its allies a total of about 12,000 troops in the small city. whoops. rhonda. -- wrong button. of course, the divided city of berlin 110 miles behind the curtain. they decided that instead of having a defensive mission, he thought he should have an offensive mission. 12,000 u.s. and allied troops surrounded by someone in the neighborhood of one million russian and east german troops. fair odds. he requested sabotage teams from his commander in west germany and the commander in west , germany decided that was probably not a bad idea not quite exactly what the berlin commander requested. instead, he gave him six special forces teams who would instead of just being sent in, they would be there permanently. stationed in the american sector and their mission would be to prepare for unconventional warfare in that one area that the u.s. forces had not planned for. that was east germany. 1956, the first six teams go up there and this unit would stay

and what was then west germany. he died in june of 1987 when his program was established in his name. his goal is to strengthen the understanding between two powerful western allies, seldom more relevant than it is today here the importance of the relationship was front and center in berlin 30 years ago the summer. it was there that resident ronald reagan delivered one of his most memorable speeches. he recalled a tear down the wall that divided the post-world war ii world. and appealed to our common humanity and freedom and dignity. it is a call that should be trumpeted again today. we're fortunate to have with us today to talk about speech through -- three of the most knowledgeable people of the moment. the ambassador onstage in berlin, with present reagan, also a trustee of the program. peter robinson, a white house speechwriter and had riemer responsibility for the speech. and the former deputy editor who wrote a book on it and will moderate today's conversations. i will hand it to them. thank you.

today i'm in rural northern germany. stable, prosperous, 21st century germany. but i'm here to talk about the past and its relationship to the present. my guest is the writer, journalist and son, niklas frank. now, his father was appointed by hitler to be the governor general of nazi—occupied poland. he was intimately involved in the murder of millions of people. so, how has this german son dealt with the terrible crimes of his father? niklas, i'm wondering why you have chosen to make your life in the very far north of germany. is it because you wanted to get as far away as possible from yourfamily background in bavaria? no, i still love bavaria. and every year we have about many weeks in bavaria, in the same village where i grew up. but it was my profession as a journalist at stern magazine, which i worked for 23 years, was based in hamburg. so, i had to lure my wife, she was attached to munich, because she is a big gardener, to her house with a big garden, so we've lived here for 33 years. this place where you now live is extraordinarily peaceful. yes, it is

i quote, the people in germany suffer under the division of germany. they suffer because of a war which expands in the powers and not from each other. if we can dismantle what divides people, then we will actually be meeting the desires of the german people. they want to reach out to each other because they belong together, end of quotation. these words of the federal chancellor helmut kohl gave us hope in the german democratic republic. the civil movement in poland and other european countries gave us courage in german democratic republic. many people dared to take to the streets to demonstrate for freedom and they managed to bring the wall down. helmut kohl was the one who wanted unity as others were still hesitating or even disagreeing. he started work on smoothing the path towards unity but always taking into account the thoughts and reservations of our neighbors to deep european conviction and the confidence that people had in him throughout the world meant that he was able to allay people's fears and worries about a reunified germany. and that wi

this was germany's first republic. fragile and it would be racked from within as hitler comes into power as you said ever having the popular vote. i think that was one thing that we see here. there was a statistician in the 1920s that reviewed the many cases of the german legal system like 1919 up to 1922 and 350 plus right-wing suspects. the vast majorities are going to be led off with basically a slap on the wrist and if you compare it to the suspects on the left on the other hand which were far fewer. i have a lot of this in the book and you can see where they would have much harsher sentences, 10 to 12 years much more than the far right. the german historian for example talked about how this legal system, this wellspring for the rise of the third reich because of the legal system. there are wonderful books you can read and i will refer you to if you know how develops from the age of bismarck. from the weimar and when hitler comes in the people's court is the institution in munich at the time and hitler will be grea

how has that changed the fabric of germany as we know it? and how might that be contributing to higher tensions? >> i think it's contributed to a fracturing of germany where people are sick of it. they realize that this is not a policy that they can sustain. they can't sustain it economically, and they can't sustain it socially. when people come in who are not interested in learning the language, the culture, and assimilating into their host country, it does create extraordinary problems, and we've seen everything from, you know, all kinds of uprising among some of the immigrants, crime, terrorism activities. i doubt angela merkel is the most popular person in her own country right now because of it. trish: i think angela merkel might be facing political challenges because people are so concerned about their safety now in germany in a way that they previously didn't need to be. just the reality of having all of these new people that have not assimilated with that culture. we showed our viewers many times, and you've seen them as well right h

germany is saying you cannot arrest people in germany if they have not committed a crime. these things need to be investigated. turkey seems to doubt whether germany is still an ally. germany is turning this around a bit and saying, do we really want to be your partner? what is going to happen in the future? which way is turkey going to turn? there is a limited control germany has over this, the e.u. has potentially over this, but we are expecting some can create measures to come out when germany's foreign minister will hold a statement. brent: we know there is a general election coming up in germany in september. the german chancellor -- is she going to come under fire for how she is handling this with turkey? michaela: there was a bit of criticism earlier in the week, but the social democrats also felt this is such a strategic relationship that it is really important. that cannot be put on the line. now, the german chancellor has reacted herself. she has said enough is enough, called for the release of this latest incident, this latest case, but also of deniz yucel, who
