Kučan discusses Europe and Slovenia 30 years after Berlin Wall
LJUBLJANA - Slovenia's first President Milan Kučan told Delo that the fall of the Berlin Wall 30 years ago was a historic moment, with Europe being ready to overcome divisions from the Cold War, but that the subsequent processes have not been as reciprocal as some had hoped. He said there were different expectations, but their common foundation was that the fall of the Berlin Wall brings a promised period of Europe without differences, with nations committed to the same values and building the future together. "When the happy moment came, it somewhat blurred the reality and objective differences. Later on, they became even more pronounced, especially given the expectations of the enlargement of European integration to the east."
