‘The reunification policy needed some explaining abroad.’ In 1990, commenting on the ‘Two Plus Four’ (2 + 4) Conference attended in Bonn by the two Germanys and the four Allied Powers signatory to the 1945 Potsdam Agreement — the United States, the United Kingdom, France and the Soviet Union — the German cartoonist, Walter Hanel, illustrates the efforts of Hans-Dietrich Genscher, West German Foreign Minister, to reassure the Western Allies and the Soviet Union of the definitive international status of the reunified Germany.
