QuoteHonecker widow Margot defends communist East Germany
The widow of the last ruler of communist East Germany has defended the former regime's hardline policies in a rare TV interview.
Margot Honecker, 84, lives in exile in Chile. She and her late husband Erich moved there after the Berlin Wall fell in 1989.
She was education minister in East Germany (the GDR), responsible for ideological conformity.
She called ex-Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev a "traitor" for his reforms.
She also expressed irritation about her pension of 1,500 euros (£1,249; $2,000) a month from today's unified German state, calling it "outrageously small".
"For me the GDR was my life," she said in the German ARD television documentary.
"It's a tragedy that that country no longer exists."
She ran East German schools from 1963 to 1989 and was also responsible for the policy of forcibly removing the children of dissidents and their adoption by the ideologically faithful.
On the hardline attitude towards dissent, she says simply: "We had enemies, so we had national security".
She said East Germans who were shot trying to flee to the West during the Cold War had only themselves to blame.
Ostalgie, ostalgie
J'écris ton nom :rolleyes:
:lol: She thinks that is outrageously small she should have seen what the average East German wage could buy.
I didn't even know that Germany was paying her. I wonder how much Helmut Kohl would have gotten had East Germany taken over.

Two in the chest and one in the head during a 'failed escape attempt'.
I miss the DDR. As fucked up as Communism was, nobody did it better than the Germans.
