Czech, Bavarian ministers commemorate Iron Curtain fall

Czech Foreign Minister Tomas Petricek, Bavarian Finance and Home Affairs Minister Albert Furacker and other guests symbolically cut the barbed wire again at the Rozvadov-Nove Domky border crossing to commemorate 30 years of the Iron Curtain fall today. During the whole cruel 20th century, both countries had never a chance of living together as friendly and in a neighbourly way for such a long time as now, Plzen Regional Governor Josef Bernard, who initiated the meeting, said in his opening speech.
