Our ambassadors’ series hosts Permanent Representatives of UN Member States for conversations about the role of their countries in the UN and in the world. In this episode we invited the Permanent Representative of Germany, Ambassador Dr. Katharina Stasch, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of Germany’s membership in the UN.
In 1973 there were two German states. The Federal Republic of Germany and the German Democratic Republic were both admitted to membership in the United Nations fifty years ago, on 18 September 1973. Ambassador Dr. Stasch tells us more about this historic moment, how it has shaped Germany’s membership in the UN, and what happened once the two countries were reunited in 1990.
