Erich Honecker awaits Secretary General Michail Gorbachev at the Schönefeld Airport in East-Berlin.
With joyful waving, citizins hold up GDR and USSR flags, to welcome the russian politician.
It is the 6th of October, just one day before the 40th anniversary of the German Democratic Republic.
Crowds gather together around the airfield, where the plane of Mr. Gorbachev will land.
Honecker seems very pleased. When asked by a reporter, he answers:
"...I feel like a Berliner today."
