Berlin: Extension to West Berlin of International Agreements Signed by the Federal Republic of Germany

A file containing documents concerning the extension to West Berlin of international agreements by West Germany. Subjects covered in the file include a series of protests against such arrangements by Soviet, East German, and other Eastern European representatives, often featuring incomplete and misleading references to the 1971 Quadripartite Agreement; and British, French, and American rebuttals of these protests. The file describes the agreements that brought about such protests, including an Anglo-West German agreement for the transfer of plutonium, the Convention on the Privileges and Immunities of the United Nations, the International Convention against the Taking of Hostages, acts of the International Telecommunications Union, and the Nice agreement on the registration of marks. Other subjects discussed in the file include Mozambican objections to the "Berlin clause" in the Lomé convention; and East Germany's accession to certain acts of the Universal Postal Union.
