guillelobera 0 Posted November 8, 2009 Berlin celebrates 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall onNovember 9, 2009.The fall of the Berlin Wall paved the way for German reunification,which was formally concluded on October 3, 1990.You can see in this photo the satirical mural depicting Communistdictators the Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev and the East Germancounterpart Erich Honecker kissing on the lips with true Soviet-eraardour. It was one of the most famous images on what's left ofBerlin's once infamous wall and was painted by Russian artist DmitriVrubel, one of graffiti artists, in 1990 just months after the rest ofBerlin Wall was officially opened.
