1990年10月3日零时整,一面崭新的德国国旗在柏林帝国议会大厦前的广场上徐徐升起,分裂了40多年的德国重新实现了统一。作为前联邦德国总理的赫尔穆特·科尔,因为抓住了东欧巨变机会,纵横捭阖,完成了德国人半个世纪以来梦寐以求的国家统一,当之无愧地登上了统一后德国总理的宝座。4年后,64岁的科尔以微弱的优势击败了对手,第四次登上德国总理的宝座。这位身高1.93米,体重达118公斤,举止潇洒的政界传奇人物,是怎样从二战后期的一个“童子军”一步一步走上德国政坛的呢?
At 0:00 on October 3, 1990, a brand new German flag rose slowly in the square in front of the imperial parliament building in Berlin. Germany, which has been split for more than 40 years, has regained its reunification. Helmut Kohl, the former Federal Chancellor of Germany, took the opportunity of the great changes in Eastern Europe to cross the border and completed the dreamless national reunification of the Germans for half a century and deservedly boarded the throne of reunified German Chancellor. Four years later, the 64-year-old Cole defeated his opponent with a slight advantage and made his fourth appearance as the German chancellor. The 1.93-meter-tall, 118-kilogram weight, graceful political legend is a step by step approach to German politics from a “Boy Scout” of World War II.
