| Summary / Abstract (Note) | On March 13, 1967, the former West German chancellor, Konrad Adenauer, received a visit from future U.S. President Richard Nixon. Adenauer was a frail old man. He was ninety-one years of age and in the autumn of his life. Nixon’s opening remarks made it clear, however, that he had not come to say goodbye to the architect of the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG), nor was this merely a social call. Instead, Nixon had travelled all the way to Bonn with the sole purpose of asking the chancellor for advice. “I attach great importance to Dr. Adenauer’s judgements,” Nixon began, “and I am delighted to have the opportunity to hear Dr. Adenauer’s thoughts on different questions and problems.” |
