German Chancelor Angela Merkel lived and worked in the communist GDR for a big part of her life. She worked in GDR government departments and it is presumed that she also worked for the Stasi (the Eastern German equivalent of the KGB). Her Stasi-nickname was "Erika".

The biggest event in the history of the Stasi in the GDR was the constant observation of the critical German Communists Robert Havemann, who also published books in the West and Western cash account is maintained, as established by GDR law was forbidden.
The surveillance of the Stasi took place in 1979 until the death of Havemann 1982 and had its climax bizarre traits adopted.
On the water site of Robert Havemann in Grünheide at Berlin, he was even placed under house arrest and his property has been hermetically sealed. He was incommunicado and even a visit to Havemann was by the police and the Stasi monitored.
Neighboring plots were bought up by the Stasi. Police cars were sent to both outputs of the road and boat rides posted were from the water side of the police accompanied by boats. Even a wooden hut on the property, Ms Katja Havemann after divorce to a Stasi IM sold. Even the right of access and rights of way has been touched and Havemann so covered with processes.
Young people aged between Angela Merkel, the Stasi Observation on the site around the clock over. Occasionally up to 200 were Stasi agents on the site and are apart from house arrest since 1976 had Havemann capped with a phone line to live. The monitoring cost 740 000 GDR marks.
Since the verdict, and visit the main access is not regulated over the Stasi itself. The Stasi had only chosen by people who were allowed to enter the land, which belonged to the parish Meinel.
In the WDR editorial we planned the report "In the Eye of the power images of the Stasi", and wanted to work on researching the Stasi.
But what does all this have to do with our current Chancellor Angela Merkel? Well. This:
The editors met on a photo of a young woman who is around 1980 in that time the site of the family in Havemann Grünheide approached at Berlin: The photo was ANGELA MERKEL to see the site Havemann in the period of observation and the isolation of Havemann approached.
Approached as one of the 200 IM Stasi's site Havemann or was it coincidence?
Angela Merkel was at this time as a student or Doctor Antin at the Central Institute for Physical Chemistry at the Academy of Sciences of the GDR, and was led FDJ Secretary (Chair) at the Academy of Sciences of the GDR, and especially in this time scattering state. Your office she shared with a son Havemann, whose family was torn apart and his mother also was distinguished by Havemannn.
One son lived in the West and criticized the father in a Spiegel interview is not real communists with profiling addiction.
Ms. Havemann was also against Mr. Havemann aufgehetzt and the second son of Havemann could also be in opposition to the father have been.
Angela Merkel said later to the biographer Langguth, that they have no special contact with Havemann jr and they had the views of the "Third Way between communism and capitalism have never shared.
On 31 January 1978 the planned MfS a new operational plan against Haveemann in Grünheide and visibility in the S for the Stasi to continue the decomposition A "IN THE boss" and a "IM Alexander Reinhardt" were subsequently applied Havemann on time and they should intensify the work of decomposition. Havemann It also withdrew the license of "health reasons". Gregor Gysi defended Havemann in another trial for the West money account before the district court Fuerstenwalde. 1979 there was in May for a total ban on visit to the reception for Havemann.
Angela Merkel was working for the Stasi and Others on the observation of the regime critic Havemann cooperated. Well mainly by relying on a son Havemann "andiente".
We have a Stasi spy Chancellor.
Papa Merkel also had contacts with East German Church and official circles, as the hinge between the Church and the East German state had seen, and often had contacts Stasi Stasi or under suspicion were.
Mr. Kasner has had contacts with the lawyer Wolfgang Schnur, the Stasi was IM and Clemence de Maizière, also have been Stasi IM should be. But also to Manfred Stolpe (suspected Stasi) and Klaus Gysi, the father of Gregor Gysi, the Minister of the Church in the GDR issue was.
In turn times were calculated by Angela Merkel DDR CDU Prime Minister Lothar de Maizière (IM Czerny) as Deputy Government Spokeswoman brought into the cabinet.
Previously, she had to turn in times of precisely the "Democratic Awakening" is connected, its chairman Stasi IM had been, and Wolfgang Schnur said. Also he was GDR district attorney in the haze of the GDR church. Angela Merkel was going to be in member of this organization.
After Lothar de Maizière as Prime Minister of East Germany had been unmasked, and Helmut Kohl before the election which should have had knowledge, he still has the choice of the East German Prime Minister failed to prevent and de Maizière yet supported.
Helmut Kohl gets chosen Angela Merkel from the environment by de Maizière into the cabinet and make it to the Federal Minister.
How was that again with the GDR agents Guillaume, the East German who allegedly turned their backs and then had to carry suitcases into the Chancellor Willy Brandt of West Germany had finished?
There was also a definite recruiting the woman Angela Merkel for the Stasi for the purpose of working for the Stasi. Supposedly they do not have angebissen. If the image of Angela Merkel on gettoisierten at the family estate in Havemann Grünheide at Berlin from the year 1980 on the scale is, this version seems less credible.
The IM Bachmann (applied to Havemann) reported on Merkel: The Stasi IM Bachmann emphasizes the positive attitude of Merkel about the Marxism-Leninism out.
Angela Kasner / Merkel made the EOS Hermann Matern in Uckermark / DDR and organized the school there was a squad leader FDJ management of the school the solemn closing ceremony for graduates. In the hall she went to the lectern and called for solidarity and money donations with the Marxist-Leninist liberation movement Frelimo in Mozambique, which resulted in a civil war and a communist transformation of the South American country struggled.
They collected money for weapons and equipment for the armed struggle of the Frelimorebellen in the fight against U.S. imperialism, apartheid South African politics and racism in southern Africa. Also, the ANC and ZANU Marxistenrebellen Zimbabwe and Angola were allies in this war against imperialism and western domination in Africa.
As FDJ squad this charity she co-ordinated action for "equitable Frelimorebellen the resistance struggle against imperialism and Neokolonilismus".
Langguth Merkel describes in his biography that Horst Kasner closely with the Stasiinformant Clemence de Maizière community.
They formed together the antimarxistische actually GDR church to a church in socialism in order.
Ironically, the son of Clemence de Maizière, also as a Stasi IM Czerny under suspicion is hievte Angela Merkel to power and brought it as a press spokeswoman for Prime Minister of East Germany as a Kohl's grace into the cabinet.
Why won Lothar de Maizière calculated Angela Merkel as a government spokesperson in the Cabinet?
The close relationship goes further:
As Chancellor of the Federal Republic of catching them precisely Thomas de Maizière in the federal government?
But why? Weis de Maizière clan despite exposure too much? Merkel has the Maizieres owe what to?
The item, which Thomas de Maizière had received was actually for the Bavarian CSU planned.
Thomas de Maizière was ... ... Chancellery Minister in Angela Merkel and her right hand and he is also responsible for SECRET SERVICES as Verfassungsschutz, BND, Stasi agents and others over jurisdiction.
Well what a coincidence.
The office partner of Angela Merkel was from 1984-86 at the Academy of Sciences of the GDR in the elite center in Berlin Adlershof Michael Schindhelm, 1978 in the Voronezh (former Soviet Union) had studied and later became known for a declaration of commitment of the Ministry of State Security of the GDR signed.
In retrospect, he tries to depict himself as a victim and he is now Theaterindentant in Basle.
He wrote in 1984 in Voronezh and was rewarded with the Academy of Sciences of the GDR in the office of Angela Merkel, to which from 1978 to 199o worked here until the last.
Even Angela Merkel had 1978 Declaration of Commitment of the Ministry for State Security of the GDR as a precondition for work on the GDR's elite Institute receive.
It is not very credible, that she refuses to work and still the same in the Academy of Sciences of the GDR was transported.
At the same time, they are also a member of the FDJ district leadership at the academy and even Chairman (Secretary) on the line FDJ Elite Institute of the GDR.
At the Academy has also worked on Michael Schindhelm, is definitely at the same institute in the same hierarchical level as Merkel Stasi IM had been.
It is very unlikely that Angela Merkel to the elite scientist trained at the elite Institute DDR FDJ leader and head of the FDJ was used for agitation and propaganda was responsible, but at the same time, the Stasi made their pledge not to have signed.
Conversely, one could almost suspect that the Stasi activities is a precondition for work on the GDR elite has been transformed.
Angela Merkel is not to their East German past.
If you are at least clearly its deep involvement in the SED regime and the GDR power admitted and processed would have you as Chancellor perhaps conceivable.
But the Abwiegeln hide and discredit the woman, and makes them unacceptable in the function.
The bend and rewriting the biography by CDU biographers is also embarrassing and rude.
She tried even be FDJ hero profile after a house with other DDR FDJ cadres in Prenzlauer Berg in the middle of occupied Berlin, the SED after the new slogan was issued, the housing problem in the GDR as a social issue final historical and solve a huge housing program boosts (Marzahn, etc.).
It worked so well, and later she was transferred to the GDR's elite academy, and even called FDJ functionary on top GDR elite institution, where the East German television and Honecker Edelbrigade "Feliks Dscherschinsky" was stationed.
Honesty and openness would be appropriate, Angela M. aka "Erika".
The office partner at the Academy of Sciences of the GDR 1984 named Michael Shield Helm, the theater manager later in Basle, has a novel called "Robert's Journey" is written.
He also describes the environment at the elite Academy of Sciences of the GDR in Berlin Adlershof.
Merkel's office partner Michael Schindhelm was only much later than the Stasi in the GDR unmasked and it was also found his pledge. About Angela Merkel, he has never written comical way.
Anders in the novel "Roberts journey", where a female colleague and research assistant called the Schindhelm in the novel "Roberts journey" with the name "Erika" equips.
In this "Erika" refers to his office comrade Angela Merkel. But why he is called as a Stasi IM Angela in the novel precisely Erika?
If the descriptions of a woman Kathrin Schmidt in the weekly magazine "Friday" from 3.06.2005 vote, Angela Merkel has not only its own Stasi file stores, but also Stasi files of his father, Horst Kasner:
Quote: One photo shows Angela Merkel as FDJlerin with Lessing Medal, which is only for absolute academic excellence at the high school or baccalaureate existed. This photo, with FDJ-shirt and medal, is also from me. What should I say: We actually have a similar hairstyle and, what counts more, a similar view. I start my einzufühlen in Angela Dorothea Kasner, and that reminds me not even hard. She calls her self a niche, to which nobody, not even their best friends, and have access to them, for example, the State Security visits with her father keeps the dissident materials copied in a way in which attention had hineinmanövriert. They learn early to make a secret from their intimate Verfühlungen, and you'll still benefit because they are private feelings do not seem to have under the halo of power.
Accordingly, Angela Merkel into a corner the Stasi secret visits with her father as document stores. Were the inspection of files or IM Stasi files of the Stasi, in which father appeared Kasner
Father Kasner / Merkel was thus also spies, "the dissident materials copied" and the "attention" of the Stasi had hineinmanövriert.
So the father was therefore Kasner Stasi IM?! And why hide Angela Merkel this secret document of the father in the "niche"? They soon learned a secret from those things to make?
So this reads as if Merkel knew the Stasi files and hiding in the policy of the Stasi was involved.
