Taking a pragmatic stance was helpful in 1989

This article highlights that George Bush Snr and Helmut Kohl were actually very cautious before and after the Berlin Wall came down 1989. This pragmatism, caution and realism may well have helped the transition become as peaceful as it was. A more bellicose and triumphalist approach by the NATO powers in those early days may well have triggered coups by Stalinist hardliners.

Letters: 1989 – after the wall came down
