Verehrte Gäste und liebe Freunde aus dem Ausland! Verehrte Gäste aus der Bundesrepublik Deutschland! Meine Damen und Herren Delegierte und Gastdelegierte der Christlich Demokratischen Union Deutschlands! Meine sehr verehrten Damen und Herren! Meine lieben Freunde! Hiermit eröffne ich den 32. Bundesparteitag der Christlich Demokratischen Union Deutschlands. Die CDU hat sich zum letzten Mal vor 28 Jahren, im Jahre 1956, zu einem Parteitag in Stuttgart versammelt. Damals hielt Konrad Adenauer Rückschau auf das erste Jahrzehnt unserer Parteigeschichte. Heute und in den kommenden Tagen, bis zum Freitag, wollen wir hier von Stuttgart aus in die Zukunft unserer Bundesrepublik Deutschland blicken. Es geht um den Auftrag, den wir uns selbst gesetzt haben: Deutschland als moderne, als humane Industrienation. Dieses Ziel, liebe Freunde, ist nicht neu. Neu aber und neuartig sind die Probleme und Herausforderungen, mit denen wir uns jetzt und in der Zukunft auseinanderset­ zen müssen. Die Epoche der Nachkriegszeit ist abgeschlossen. Wir haben heute andere Sorgen. Es ist eine neue, eine junge Generation herangewachsen.

  • Freie Demokraten Trauern Um Klaus Kinkel
    Freie Demokraten trauern um Klaus Kinkel FDP| 05.03.2019 - 10:30 Freie Demokraten trauern um Klaus Kinkel Die Freien Demokraten trauern um ihren ehemaligen Bundesvorsitzenden und Außenminister a.D., Klaus Kinkel. Er starb am Montag im Alter von 82 Jahren. Christian Lindner, Bundesvorsitzender der FDP, schrieb in einer ersten Reaktion: "Der Tod von Klaus Kinkel geht mir nahe. Er war ein aufrechter und bescheidener Mann mit Charakter, dessen freundschaftlichen Rat ich sehr geschätzt habe. Ich habe ihm viel zu verdanken." Lindner würdigte Kinkels Verdienste um Deutschland und Europa: "Klaus Kinkel verstand sich nie als Parteipolitiker, sondern im besten Sinne des Wortes als Staatsdiener. Er erwarb sich so große Verdienste und hat für unser Land und unsere Partei mehr bewirkt, als öffentlich mitunter wahrgenommen wurde." Kinkel habe sich "um diese Partei, aber vor allen Dingen auch um unser Land hoch verdient" gemacht. "Er verkörperte vieles von dem, was wir brauchen: Vernunft, Offenheit und Toleranz. In diesen gefährlichen Zeiten sei Kinkels Bekenntnis zu Europa und dessen Grundwerten nötiger denn je", zollt er dem starken moralischen Kompass des liberalen Urgesteins seinen Respekt. "Wir verlieren mit ihm einen väterlichen Freund. Er war uns bis in diese Tage ein weiser und bisweilen leidenschaftlicher Ratgeber. Dabei war er immer loyal und diskret. Wir werden ihn sehr vermissen", so Lindner. Was er auch tat, er sei in rauem Umfeld ein prinzipientreuer, liebenswürdiger und bescheidener Mensch geblieben: "Er wird uns fehlen." Lindner erklärte: "Als Bundesvorsitzender hat er sich von 1993 bis 1995 für unsere Partei in schwieriger Zeit in die Pflicht nehmen lassen und hat sie trotz damals schlechter Ausgangslage wieder in den Bundestag und die Bundesregierung geführt.

    BR-ONLINE | Das Online-Angebot des Bayerischen Rundfunks Sendung vom 19.5.2010, 20.15 Uhr Sabine Leutheusser-Schnarrenberger Bundesjustizministerin im Gespräch mit Werner Reuß Reuß: Verehrte Zuschauer, ganz herzlich willkommen zum alpha-Forum. Unser Gast ist heute Sabine Leutheusser-Schnarrenberger. Sie ist Mitglied des Deutschen Bundestages, Landesvorsitzende der FDP in Bayern und, zum zweiten Mal in ihrer Karriere, Bundesministerin der Justiz. Ich freue mich, dass sie hier ist, ganz herzlich willkommen, Frau Bundesministerin. Leutheusser-Schnarrenberger: Ich freue mich auch, ich grüße Sie. Reuß: Das Bundesjustizministerium gehört ja zu den fünf klassischen Ressorts einer Regierung neben dem Auswärtigen Amt, dem Innenministerium, dem Verteidigungsministerium und dem Finanzministerium. Es drängt allerdings nicht so sehr in den Vordergrund wie andere Ministerien. Ihre Amtskollegin, die bayerische Justizministerin Beate Merk, meinte einmal: "Die Justiz war immer ein zurückhaltendes Ressort." Allerdings gehören sehr viele Bereiche zu Ihrem Ressort, u. a. der Generalbundesanwalt, das Bundesverwaltungsgericht, der Bundesgerichtshof, das Deutsche Patentamt, in dem Sie selbst auch einmal gearbeitet haben. Was sind denn die drei, vier wichtigsten Aufgaben der Bundesjustizministerin? Leutheusser-Schnarrenberger: Die Bundesjustizministerin hat ja mehr Aufgaben als die Länderjustizminister, weil die meiste Gesetzgebungskompetenz für das Strafrecht, für das Bürgerliche Gesetzbuch, für die allgemeinen Geschäftsbedingungen, für das Insolvenzrecht, das

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Ashley Berke Senior Public Relations Manager 215.409.6693 [email protected] MIKHAIL GORBACHEV TO RECEIVE 2008 LIBERTY MEDAL AT THE NATIONAL CONSTITUTION CENTER Award to be presented by President George H.W. Bush Philadelphia, PA – The National Constitution Center’s 2008 Liberty Medal will be awarded to former Soviet leader and Nobel Peace Prize winner Mikhail Gorbachev for his courageous role in ending the dangerous, decades-long Cold War and in giving hope and freedom to millions who lived behind the Iron Curtain. The public Liberty Medal ceremony will take place on Thursday, September 18, 2008, at the National Constitution Center on Independence Mall in Historic Philadelphia, and will set the stage for international commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall in 2009. “This year’s ceremony will be a memorable tribute to a revolutionary thinker with courage and conviction who believed in the power of liberty and openness,” said National Constitution Center President and CEO Joseph M. Torsella. “Mikhail Gorbachev is someone who truly changed the course of history, and we are honored to recognize him.” “During the Cold War, Gorbachev helped replace confrontation with negotiation and established a new climate between East and West,” said Torsella. “He bravely opened the doors of Soviet society to the winds of freedom and change, and he continues to be a voice for an open society today. His vision and strength were central to bringing about a peaceful end to the Cold War, and his remarkable leadership has led to profound and lasting consequences for our nations and for all people who treasure liberty.” This took both vision and courage.
