The relevance of this particular period for today’s bilateral relationships between the two countries will also be discussed focusing on the European context, war and peace, democracy and participation and the mutual understanding of European countries.

The event will take place on the 22nd of November 2018 at 6 PM at Schiffbauerdamm 40 / Ecke Reinhardtstraße. 55, 10117 Berlin . To register you need to write to : anmeldungen@vloksbund.de  .
