- Опубликовано: 1 июн 2024
- On 7 October 1989, East Berliners lined the streets for a chance to see leader of the Soviet Union Mikhail Gorbachev as he arrived in the capital of the German Democratic Republic (Deutsche Demokratische Republik; DDR) to mark the 40th anniversary of the socialist state. ITN's cameras filmed soldiers on parade and the city's civilians gathering in anticipation at the Neue Wache war memorial on Unter Den Linden; a particulatly excited section of the crowd was made up of members of the Free German Youth (Freie Deutsche Jugend; FDJ), the state's official youth organisation. Outside the Neue Wache, Gorbachev spoke to people in the crowd and held a brief press conference on the pavement. He was later taken to Schönhausen Palace, then known as Schloss Niederschönhausen, the official guest house for state visitors to the GDR. There he met and posed for photographs with East German leader Erich Honecker.

It's great that this footage is uploaded to RUclips BUT, can no-one at ITN put some subtitles on so we can know what Gorbachev was saying? This is historically important stuff!
He said that his generation was the last who experienced war.
Apologies for the delay, subtitles have now been added!

Говорил, что предал ГДР и собирается развалить СССР
Ideologies stopped existing in 1991 with the collapse of the Soviet Union, but the World now is divided again. At one side we have USA and their allies/satellites at the other side we have China, Russia and their allies/satellites. There are few countries that are independent like India but they are a minority. Anyway, the world has become again more dangerous as it was during the Cold War.
It's called imperialism, and it's never about ideology, it's about economy in the first place.
@@EdReddish184 I don't agree with that part where you say "especially for economic reasons". Wars can be made for several reasons and power, geo-political reasons can be as important as, or even more important than business. This war has 1st of all geo-political and safety reasons.

Thanks for uploading😃
I was born in Russia in 1968, and I say that I grew up in the best phase of the USSR. Far removed from the horrors of Stalin. I was at Moscow University when Gorbachev started Perestroika and Glasnost. At first I supported the reforms and his support for the re-democratization of Eastern Europe. After all, we fought for communism, Eastern Europeans did not. It was imposed on them. In my 1985 conception, the USSR should have proceeded without the Warsaw Pact, a bag of rubble that we have been carrying since 1945. Let them be free. But Russia lost a lot with the end of communism. It was horrible for all of us, facing a corporate world after a life protected by communism that gave us everything hand in hand! College vacancies, cars and apartments. When the USSR ended, we didn't even know how to write a check!
Bienvenidos al capitalismo donde te enseñaron abrir una cuenta de ahorros en un banco
I'm British and like you was born in 1968 and therefore witnessed the same events as you from the other side
Growing up we never felt animosity towards Russians but rather understood that their control over their neighbours was primarily protective due to what had happened to it during WWII
I welcomed the end of the Cold War but was sad to see the collapse of the USSR and Yugoslavia and their disintegration into ethnic conflict
Now Russia itself is under siege due to its intervention in the protection of minorities in former soviet republic's
I pray for the return of statesmenship especially here in the west
"Let them be free"? Who asked you? Who are you imperial maniacs even to decide who has shall be free? Nobody needs your USSR trauma or your Russian imperialist narrative! Go home with your russkij mir and leave Europe alone. This is our last warning.
@@stephenchappell7512 lol what happened in WW2 was part of Soviet Russia plans. "Protective" Russia, now that's a great joke.

Gorbachev was answering the questions candidly, but in an indirect manner,

Brilliant leader Gorborchev. Reorganized eastern Europe without firing a shot. Perestroika (not collapse).
He went, despite the fact Honecker and himself butted heads with regards to policy, as Honecker was opposed to his reforms. Gorbachev saw Honecker, Ceausescu of Romania, and the Communist leaders at the time in Czechoslovakia and Bulgaria as stuck in the past, you might say.
Honecker was a bastard. Even his accent was fake. He was from the Saarland at the French border but for some reason he tried to sound like Walter Ulbricht, who was from Leipzig.
Gorbachev recognised those despots for what they were; fiefdoms under a red flag, particularly Romania and Bulgaria
To Gorbaczow się pomylił.

I was on a school trip to East Berlin in March 1989. At least it didn't look like a collapse there. It all seemed a bit gray, dreary and lethargic to me, but at least it was German throughout. I was impressed by the guard battalion of the East German army. My grandfather always said that the East German army was much closer to the Wehrmacht in terms of tradition and uniforms than the West German Bundeswehr. He never took the Bundeswehr seriously. Here in the former West Germany, they negated all Prussian military traditions and put colorful berets on their heads. Was that wise? The Soviets knew why they wanted the East German army to be Prussian. Namely because the Prussian traditions were good and suited Germany.
Gorbatschow war der beste russische Staatsmann aller Zeiten, so einer fehlt uns heute. Möge er in Frieden ruhen. Ich verneige mich tief vor solch einen ehrlichen und gerechten Mann. Er hat die Welt zum positiven verändert, Deutschland und Europa sind ihm sehr dankbar dafür.
Dem kann ich mich nur anschließen.
bzdura
@@anetawojtera7584 Warum Unsinn, das ist die Wahrheit du dummer unwissender und undankbarer Russentroll. Möchte wetten 1985 warst du noch gar nicht auf der Welt und ich bin ihm heute noch dankbar, denn er hat uns die Freiheit gebracht und ich konnte nach vielen Jahren endlich all meine Geschwister im Westen wiedersehen.
Leider hat er nicht gesehen, bzw. vergessen Putin seiner Position zu entheben
Das stimmt, er hat vieles nur für Deutschland und Europa getan, nicht aber für sein sowjetisches Volk. Haben Sie sich schon einmal Gedanken darüber gemacht, wie viele Kriminalität und wirtschaftliche Probleme die einfache russische Bevölkerung nach dem Zusammenbruch der UdSSR ertragen musste? In unserem Land halten sie ihn für den falschen Politiker, weil Gorbatschow nur an die Deutschen gedacht hat. Hat Sie Russland jemals gestört oder haben Sie nur an sich selbst gedacht?

كان هذا الرجل مثقفا ولكنه كان في نفس الوقت غبيا ، اراد ان يصلح اتحادا انشئ بالقوة والحديد والنار وطرح افكار مثل البريسترويكا والكلاسنوست وكانت النتيجة هو انهيار هذا الاتحاد ! هؤلاء المصفقين ليسوا الاخائفين ليس الا ، ولايعبرون عن فرحتهم !!
Ich stand auch an der Fahrstrecke von Gorbi als Streckenposten, schön die Kameraden zu sehen und die Situation an dem Tag im Berliner Zentrum
Народ-то немецкий как радовался
Vy ne predstavljaete kak.
а в СССР уже начиналась нищета и развал страны
The translation is a bit long-winded. What he said was 'Honecker, you're fired!' and 11 days later he was gone.
Apparently some east Germans actually liked living in east Germany
J’étais à Berlin le 9 novembre 2014 pour les festivités des 25 ans de la chute du mur. Je me baladais aux alentours de la porte de Brandebourg et de la rue du 17 juin. Les préparatifs battaient leur plein.
À un moment donné, je vois une quinzaine de personnes en train de patienter devant l’hôtel Adlon, je me joins à eux ne sachant pas ce qu’ils attendaient. Et là au bout d’une dizaine de minutes, qui vois-je apparaître sortant de l’hôtel avec sa tache de vin sur le front… Gorbatchev.
Je me suis mis à le héler comme un allemand de l’est en 1989 "Gorbi Gorbi" j’ai pris plein de photos.
Je me souviens encore du regard complice que j’ai échangé avec un allemand qui était juste à côté de moi.
Ils avaient, nous avions tous le visage illuminé par ce que nous venions de vivre.
On ne croise pas tous les jours dans la rue ce genre d’homme.
I reckon this visit was seismic, a game changer in the wall coming down.
Apparently, word has it, that the Soviets were broke, out of money themselves and could no longer afford to prop up the DDR.
This was reiterated to Honecker in talks for 4 hours between himself and Gorbachev.
Gorbachev stated to Honecker that he could no longer support Honecker, which was the end of the DDR. They were in the same room for that time, not once did both agree on any single one thing. That's accirding to Soviet officials present.
Only for that, East Germany would have survived.
This 40th Anniversary meeting changed everything.
The phrase he used to warn Erich Honecker is in all the history books here in Russia; he said "Those who are late in acting will be punished by history."
That interpreter though 😅🏆
2:13 can’t wait until those mustaches become fashion again…😁

J was in Berlin that day, j was at Check Point Charlie in the evening.
C'era una folla molto arrabbiata sulla Friedrichstraße quella sera,era trattenuta a stento sui marciapiedi dalla polizia.Riuscii con difficoltà ad arrivare in fondo alla strada e chiesi ad un sottufficiale della polizia come potevo attraversare il Chek Point.Lui mi disse che dovevo rivolgermi all'ufficiale americano che stava al centro della strada.Chiesi all' ufficiale
di andare a Berlino Est e lui gentilmente mi accompagnò al limite, mi disse che per lui non era un problema ma il problema poteva essere l'ufficiale russo con i suoi soldati schierati di fronte a pochi metri.Anche l'ufficiale russo diede ordine ai soldati di farmi passare e arrivai nell'edificio dove pensai doveva esserci la polizia della DDR.
Infatti dopo dieci minuti di silenzio e nervosa attesa si affacció da dietro uno sportellino un "VoPos"dalla faccia molto seria,quasi truce,che mi chiese cosa facevo e dove volevo andare.Gli risposi che ero un turista e quindi volevo visitare la città ma il sempre meno gentile poliziotto mi chiese "WHERE???",gli risposi"Alexanderplatz".
Mi respinse con forza il passaporto si giró e se ne andó gridando"Nein Raus!!!"
Tornai indietro tra la folla inferocita,l'ufficiale americano mi consigliò di andare via subito da quel posto perché cominciava ad essere molto pericoloso.
Dopo 33 giorni cadde il Muro!
At least nationalism is more alive in East Germany, for which we can thank the Soviet Russian rule during the forty years following the fall of National Socialism...
Yes, as I have read, the East Germans didn't educate their population to be self-hating. Instead of focusing on Hitler, they reminded people that Germany was the land of Luther and Hegel, Mozart and Marx. I hope the people of Eastern Germany today can keep the real spirit of Germany alive even if the Wessies give in to consumerism and false multiculturalism which is actually the destruction of their own nation.
Little did Honecker knew what would happen to him and his Wall. Not any system would last forever..
Not even the Berlin Wall..The end of umpire..

What this man did is unprecedented in world history. He dismantled an entire political, economic and military bloc - an alternative to Western unipolarity, for empty promises (no NATO expansion and the USSR becoming a part of a 'common European home'). His reforms opened a Pandora's box of nationalism and greed, led to millions of deaths, 30 years of NATO aggression around the world from Yugoslavia to Libya, and wars across the ex-USSR including the current Russia and Ukraine crisis. Gorbachev is the man who sold the world.
