Gauck inspires in Kierspe: Impaired secrets of the autocrats!

Kierspe, Deutschland - Ex-Federal President Joachim Gauck urged a rousing reading in the fully occupied PZ of the comprehensive school to defend freedom and to recognize the threats to our democracy. With an enlightening chat tone and a fascinating insight into the machinations of secret services such as KGB and Stasi, he taught the audience to better understand autocratic systems. Gauck's expertise from his time as Federal President from 2012 to 2017 and as a federal representative for the Stasi documents made his explanations be alive and tangible, no worried professor equal.

under the title of his new book, "Schaufen. What threatens our democracy from the outside and inside", he linked historical and autobiographical elements, praised previous relaxation policies and at the same time criticized the current autocratic tendencies, especially those of Vladimir Putin. Gauck drew a dark picture of Putin's paradigm shift and the legend of the NATO threat, which got rolling with the security conferences. "Security in Europe only goes with Russia" - this mantra wiggles today, and Gauck sees an urgent need for action.

Gauck's urgent appeal

With emphasis, he made it clear that appeasement towards autocrats is not acceptable. England's appeasement policy against Hitler is a warning example. Gauck advocates the use of weapons if necessary to help the victims-as in the Ukraine conflict, where freedom is defended. He also gave a view of the increasing populist currents in Europe. Gauck made it clear that populism arises from concern for security - a fear that needs to be soothed.

Gauck called for an open discussion about immigration that is absolutely necessary for a large number of professions, and spoke out to use the right to vote and to defend itself against simplified. "Politicians are like us" - he emphasizes and that a differentiated examination of the AfD would be more attractive than a ban. This is the key to promoting healthy democracy.

The evening became a special event with a quick -witted Gauck, which immortalized itself in the “Golden Book” of the city of Kierspe. The KUK club could be proud of this success-an impressive evening that not only informed, but also enthusiastic.
