I was born on 1.10.1932 on a farm in Seebeck, a small village in Brandenburg province in Germany. My parents were farmers; my father had extensive fruit crops and vegetables, especially asparagus. My hometown is located at Vielitzsee, around 80 kilometers north from Berlin. Berlin was and is the German capital that I often visited with my parents and my sister. Before the 2nd World War my father had established a dairy where the milk was processed from the surrounding villages. My parents ran a business market in Oranienburg, a town where I later went to school on the northern outskirts of Berlin. Growing up in the Hitler years. My grandfather had 5 sons who all had farms. He lived on the farm of my father, and took care of me much of the time. He lived to the age of 99 years. When Hitler came to power in 1933, my father had to close the dairy. Everything was centralized. I started school in my village of Seebeck on 1.9.1939, on the day of the attack of Poland by the German army. The whole school consisted of only one class, in which children aged 6 to 14 years were taught. Later during the war, I went to school in Oranienburg and therefore had to live with friends, my new foster parents.

In October 1969, Bonn’s Christian Democrat-led “grand coalition” was replaced by an alliance of Social Democrats (SPD) and Free Democrats (FDP) led by Chancellor Willy Brandt that held a sixteen-seat majority in the West German parliament. Not only were the leaders of the CDU caught by surprise, but so, too, were many in the U.S. government. Presi- dent Richard Nixon had to take back the premature message of congratu- lations extended to Chancellor Kiesinger early on election night. “The worst tragedy,” Henry Kissinger concluded on June 16, 1971, in a con- versation with Nixon, “is that election in ’69. If this National Party, that extreme right wing party, had got three-tenths of one percent more, the Christian Democrats would be in office now.”1 American administrations and their embassy in Bonn had cultivated a close relationship with the leaders of the governing CDU/CSU for many years.

  • Central Europe
    Central Europe West Germany FOREIGN POLICY wTHEN CHANCELLOR Ludwig Erhard's coalition government sud- denly collapsed in October 1966, none of the Federal Republic's major for- eign policy goals, such as the reunification of Germany and the improvement of relations with its Eastern neighbors, with France, NATO, the Arab coun- tries, and with the new African nations had as yet been achieved. Relations with the United States What actually brought the political and economic crisis into the open and hastened Erhard's downfall was that he returned empty-handed from his Sep- tember visit to President Lyndon B. Johnson. Erhard appealed to Johnson for an extension of the date when payment of $3 billion was due for military equipment which West Germany had bought from the United States to bal- ance dollar expenses for keeping American troops in West Germany. (By the end of 1966, Germany paid DM2.9 billion of the total DM5.4 billion, provided in the agreements between the United States government and the Germans late in 1965. The remaining DM2.5 billion were to be paid in 1967.) During these talks Erhard also expressed his government's wish that American troops in West Germany remain at their present strength. Al- though Erhard's reception in Washington and Texas was friendly, he gained no major concessions. Late in October the United States and the United Kingdom began talks with the Federal Republic on major economic and military problems. Relations with France When Erhard visited France in February, President Charles de Gaulle gave reassurances that France would not recognize the East German regime, that he would advocate the cause of Germany in Moscow, and that he would 349 350 / AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK, 1967 approve intensified political and cultural cooperation between the six Com- mon Market powers—France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg.

  • EGON for Anacredit EGON for Anacredit
    EGON for AnaCredit EGON for AnaCredit The AnaCredit project involves creating a new database for the regulation of bank loans at European level. AnaCredit The European Central Bank thus requires individual Banks, through their National Central Banks, to collect a very detailed and granular set of data, including master data and addresses. This request is currently limited to legal entities, but it will also be extended to private individuals. EGON offers specific tools to support banks in transmitting this information to the ECB in a unique, codified manner in accordance with established European standards. In particular, EGON for AnaCredit is able to manage and standardize the following information: Address with NUTS encoding attribution National Identifier (e.g. tax codes, tax IDs, or other national identifiers) Legal Forms (Legal Forms of Each EU Country) LEI (Legal entities identifier) Classification of economic activities (transcoded in NACE coding) Managed information Address National Identifier The address must be provided according to the structure The National Identifier is a national identification code that below, with the attribution of the NUTS3 encoding, allowing uniquely identifies a physical or legal entity.
