On the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin shared his memories of the historic event with Russia’s NTV TV channel in their documentary film, “The Wall”.
Very frank and straightforward. It is a pity that Germans and Russians chose to fight each other in two wars. In the end it meant so much misery for both. A lesson to dear to be lost with time.Putin is so right to see see the Wall as an unnatural division as it was indeed. I am sure that this was the Soviet leadership view too. But not that of the then British PM Thatcher who wanted Germany to be kept divided.
