Adenauer as the last leaf in postwar German leadership
The profile highlights Konrad Adenauer as the remaining postwar pillar, his age and vigor, Western ties, and pivotal role in Cold War diplomacy. It notes his May 24 visit to the United States with Heinrich von Brentano, his Sept 15 election bid, and his leadership in West Germany’s recovery, unity efforts, and EU/NATO affiliations. Also mentioned are Churchill’s view of him, his moral foreign policy, and Socialist critics wary of ties to the West. In contrast a dietary aside mentions Noodles with saffron and leek preparation.
