Angela Merkel: Freedom
Angela Merkel served as Chancellor of Germany for 16 years, guiding the country through numerous crises and shaping German and international politics with her positioning and actions. In her memoirs, penned with her longtime political advisor Beate Baumann, she looks back on a life spent in two German states: the first 35 years in the socialist German Democratic Republic and the second 35 years in reunified Germany. Merkel reminisces about her childhood, youth, university days in the GDR and the dramatic year 1989, when the Berlin Wall fell and her political life began. She gives us insights into discussions with the most powerful people in the world and, looking back on key political turning points, vividly and precisely describes how important decisions were made that shape our present day. This book provides a unique glimpse into the halls of power – and is a fervent plea for Freedom. Host: Bettina Böttinger
