The collapse of the Berlin Wall had important consequences for the world economy, fundamentally the end of the alternative to capitalism; the end of the socialist model as a competitive and equal alternative. An economic model that does not produce equality or prosperity.
Chile’s ambassador to Spain, Roberto Ampuero, lived in exile in the GDR. “Not even through the mechanism of repression that the Berlin Wall meant, socialism could impose itself. Freedom triumphed”, recalls 30 years later.
El profesor de Stanford y editor de 'Die Zeit', Josef Joffe, recuerda que, tras la caída del Muro de Berlín "todo el mundo tenía miedo a un aumento de la fuerza, con la RDA amenazando al resto de Europa. Pero no ocurrió. Se democratizó y formó parte del sistema europeo".
José María Aznar met this morning with the young participants in the 19th edition of the Programa FAES de Formación de Líderes Latinoamericanos, in front of whom he affirmed the need to "recapitalise and strengthen democratic institutions" facing a "very worrying" international situation. FAES celebrates this Programme annually as part of its commitment to strengthening institutions and the rule of law in Latin America.
They both explain why Spain endures more than other countries and where its main vulnerabilities reside with the economic growth both worldwide and Spanish revised downwards. What must be done to mitigate the foreseeable crisis's effect?
