European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - October 1, 1990, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Of if re air to for or m1mmiw w we Juri armm dash Hwy l Nummi  if Tii in Gnu  to toasting the treaty soviet president Mikhail Gorbachev joins the foreign ministers of the world War ii allies and the two Germany to celebrate the agreement that provides for the foreign policy framework for reunification. Germany gets Back in the league of nations by de Reavis staff writer the reunited Germany will enjoy rights that the divided Germany never could dream of. The diplomatic catchword for such rights is  it Means Germany can become a a supreme and Independent political  but the return or sovereignty is much More involved than a simple dictionary definition. It involves complicated changes for the germans As Well As for the foreign military forces stationed in the new United Germany. Germany lost its full sovereignty in 1945, when the four Allied Powers conquered the country and set up their own Laws for ruling the wasteland that hitlers third Reich left behind. Sometime soon the rules will change. The exact time depends on when the . Senate and the parliaments of England France and the soviet Union ratify the 2-plus-4 agreement which was signed by their foreign ministers sept. 12 in Moscow. The agreement regulates the foreign policy questions of reunification. To Speed up the process the foreign ministers of the world War ii allies plan to sign an agreement suspending their rights in Germany until the agreement is ratified. Once ratification occurs the return of sovereignty Means that the germans will regain the right to determine which country a troops stay on their land. In this Case one particular group will be affected the most. A a a full sovereignty for Germany Are just code words for getting the russians out of East Germany said Gebhard Schweigler of the Eben Hauson foundation for science and politics a think tank near Stamberg Lake in Bavaria. Negotiations have been under Way for months to achieve this goal and the last soviet units Are to leave within tour years. American troops on the other hand apparently will be welcomed. A because instability and unpredictability have been identified As the new enemies the american presence will be with us. In some form or other for some time to come a Schweigler said. As a result of reunification the allies will lose their residual rights that Stem from their Victory in 1945, said a West German foreign ministry spokesman. These rights involve the military Liaison missions in Germany and the air defense identification zone. The soviet Liaison members serve As observers in the Allied occupation zones. The missions Are in Frankfurt Baden Baden and Brinde in nor Rhein westfalen. The . Version is in Potsdam East Germany. The defense identification zone is a 18.5-mile airspace along the former Intra German Border. It is controlled by the British in the North and the United states in the South the spokesman said. The average i living in what had been West Germany will notice few changes in a Sovereign Germany said a . Official m Bonn. A in a strict Legal sense full sovereignty Means nothing changes a the official said. A the basis for having . Troops stationed Here is the status of forces agreement with its supplement and the conventions on the presence of foreign forces in the Federal Republic of Germany. These agreements Are not part of the retained rights of the four Powers derived from the Victory of world War  but he could not Rule out that the sofa would not be changed in the future. In fact members of the social democratic party have grumbled for some time about the agreement. In August 1989, for instance they brought up in parliament several Points they want to change. A government spokesman said it intends to answer the spa after unification. German sovereignty will make most of the questions obsolete he said. Uwe Stehr of the social democrats said his party would press for German regulation of Maneu vers and a ban on death penalties handed Down by military courts. Stehr said his party also wants to change some of the German practices toward the Western allies. A for example the sofa supplement Calls for application of the stricter regulation wherever the West German and those of the sending states exist a he said. A but our officials have never enforced our car inspection  despite restrictions on its Independence West Germany has been regaining its sovereignty Over the last 45 years Schweigler said. A we give up something and at the same time gain in sovereignty a he said. A we make a Trade off for sovereignty by promising not to exercise full sovereignty. A for example we impose our own restrictions on atomic biological and chemical weapons. We say we done to want those things and we internalize the restraints which then become formalized in the form of Laws of the land. The allies in turn accept our right to make that  is Berlin again by de Reavis staff writer world War ii is finally ending for Berlin. In 1945, the Allied forces divided up the heaps of rubble that were once the capital of nazi Germany and kept the City under their control. With the reunification of Germany the City a 45-year-Long occupation comes to an end. Michael Bruch a member of the West Berlin Senate said that a a you la see the most dramatic changes after oct. 3,�?� the Day of reunification in the former capital of nazi Germany. A the soviets lose their hold of East Berlin and the Western allies relinquish their Rule Over West Berlin As both parts of the City become fully integrated into Germany a he said. The wars victors will leave behind a legacy of Laws. The Western allies for instance governed their parts of Berlin with More than 4,000 special decrees. A i done to think there a a judge in the country that could immediately identify All the Allied decrees a Bruch said. A a they la disappear Over a period of  one change that the future will bring involves the three air corridors Between West Germany and Berlin that were set up by agreements among the allies. The exclusive right of the americans French and British to use the routes will be abolished and Lufthansa the West German airline will be allowed at last to Fly to Berlin. Bruch said the Western allies will lose other Powers too. These losses include a their right to suspend or veto appointments to the office of police president and other top police posts in West Berlin. A their right to tap West Berlin telephones a a right that had been denied to West Berlin police. A their right to require the mayor and the director of the Berlin Senate the City a governing body to inform the allies of Day to Day political decisions. Allied service members and their families also stand to lose some things. For instance West Berlin police will be allowed to Issue traffic tickets to them Bruch said. Previously the police had to have military police Issue the tickets. But the presence of such service members apparently will last for a while. Last week German officials endorsed an agreement with the Western allies that will keep their troops in the City until the soviets have left the territory of the former East Germany. The soviets Are scheduled to Complete their withdrawal in 1994. The loss of Allied rights will produce a gain in individual rights for Berlin residents. Berliners will be Able to press lawsuits against Allied military institutions and service members in German courts. For example when two berliners sued the British forces for installing a firing Range at gatow air Field in 1986, the Case was decided by a London court. But the berliners will be losing some rights As Well. In 1945, the four Powers agreed that the City would be demilitarized. With reunification Berlin will no longer be a Sanctuary for Young men avoiding conscription. The ., British and French presence in Berlin was not guaranteed after the War. Berlin was totally m the hands of the red army when the Gennana surrendered unconditionally in May 1945. At the same time much of what became East Germany was in British and american hands. The Western allies relinquished portions of their occupied territory to the soviets for the Western sectors of Berlin. In the years that followed this Trade Berlin often became the Battleground for the cold War. Page 10 the stars and stripes special report
