| 释义 |
The Basic Treaty ({{lang-de|Grundlagenvertrag}}) is the shorthand name for the Treaty concerning the basis of relations between the Federal Republic of Germany and the German Democratic Republic ({{lang-de|Vertrag über die Grundlagen der Beziehungen zwischen der Bundesrepublik Deutschland und der Deutschen Demokratischen Republik}}). The Federal Republic of Germany and German Democratic Republic (GDR) recognized each other as sovereign states for the first time, an abandonment of West Germany's Hallstein Doctrine in favor of Ostpolitik. After the entry into force of the Four-Power Agreement from 1971, the two German states began negotiations over a Basic Treaty. As for the Transit Agreement of 1972, the discussions were led by the Under-Secretaries of State Egon Bahr (for the Federal Republic of Germany) and Michael Kohl (for the German Democratic Republic). As part of the Ostpolitik of Chancellor Willy Brandt, the treaty was signed on 21 December 1972 in East Berlin. It was ratified the next year in West Germany, despite opposition from hardline right-wingers. It came into effect in June 1973.{{citation needed|date=August 2017}} The signing of the treaty paved the way for the two German states to be recognised by the international community. Diplomatic relations were opened between the German Democratic Republic and:
Both German nations were also admitted to the United Nations on 18 September 1973. Under the terms of the 1973 Treaty, the two states established de facto embassies known as "permanent missions",[1] headed by "permanent representatives", who served as de facto ambassadors.[2] West Germany sent its first permanent representative in February 1974, but formal diplomatic relations were never established until German reunification (in October 1990).
