Following the 20th anniversary celebrations of the fall of the Berlin Wall we look at why there is widespread discontent in Russia at the democratic and free market reforms of two decades ago; and why east Germans are among the most welcoming of a multiparty system and particulalrly, German renunification.

Presented by Monika Greszta and Peter Gentle

We talk to Yekaterina Novichkova from the Samara State University in Russia about nostalgia for the USSR and to Konrad Schuller from Frankfurter Allgemeine Zietung about German reunification.
