‘Balancing act in Bonn’. On 26 April 1967, a Dutch cartoonist originally from Berlin, Fritz Behrendt paints an ironic picture of the difficult balancing act of West German Chancellor Kurt Georg Kiesinger (centre), who has to try to maintain the transatlantic link with US President Johnson (on the left) and work to foster good relations with his French partner, President de Gaulle (on the right). Keeping a balance between these two positions seems to be a tricky exercise.
