VMU Honorary Doctor Regalia Awarded to Former President of Germany
"Today’s Germany not only recognises its responsibility for the crimes of National Socialism, but also feels a special responsibility to defend freedom and the rights and dignity of all people.

Today, when I stand before you, you see not only a German, but also a kindred spirit, a friend of fate. The one who, after liberating himself from the dictatorship of the National Socialists, experienced the establishment of the new terror in the eastern part of his country, just like you in the Baltic States and in the other countries of Central Europe," said Joachim Gauck, the former President of the Federal Republic of Germany, in his speech on Wednesday, as he accepted the regalia of VMU Honorary Doctor.
