West Germany seeks closer East West ties and negotiable reunification, offering non aggression pacts with East European states, exchanging observers in NATO and Warsaw Pact drills, and pledging no new nuclear weapons. Dr Rainer Barzel proposes allow Russian troops and keeps French forces post NATO. The stance signals a gradual, peaceful path rather than immediate reunification.
