Dumas, Roland 1922-

Kohl and Kucan discuss the disintegration of Yugoslavia and emphasize the need for minority rights, self determination and the non-use of force. Kohl explains his position arguing that Germany must not be "singularized" in its diplomacy.

Kohl and Ghali discuss Germany's international position after unification and the end of the Cold War. Kohl argues that many were surprised by the return of "old demons" in former Yugoslavia. He emphasizes the long-term objective of establish a new sort of European crisis management exluding a repetition of violent conflicts. This was the rational for his strong engagement in favor of the Maastricht Treaty.

Kohl and Mitterrand examine the Soviet position in the Gulf War and the situation in the Baltics.
