Gysi is not just clever; he is extremely clever. So I appreciate Nathan copying this to the list.

This letter is an interesting document squaring his individual conscience, many constituencies and audiences, and presenting a viable negotiating position, which in other political scenarios would make him a possible replacement as foreign minister of Joschka Fischer.

It would take a long time to analyse it.

Was there any reply?
