Brandt Sees Rebellion if Russia Forces Berlin
West Berlin mayor Willy Brandt warned that a Soviet push to seize the free section of Berlin could spark an anti Communist uprising in East Germany. He said a new Berlin crisis is unlikely soon, met Kennedy aides, and cited East German worries over losing skilled citizens as fueling pressure on Moscow and Ulbricht. Brandt noted Khrushchev’s restraint to avoid complicating talks and read a communique from Kennedy reaffirming U.S. commitment to West Berlin.
