Adenauer's Electoral Victory September 6, 1953
View through CrossRef
The elections for the German “Bundestag” (Parliament—Lower House) of September 6, 1953 guarantees a democratic development for the free part of the German nation. However, the real significance of these elections transcends the German borders. For months there had been a stagnation in foreign policy which, since the spring of 1953 and especially since Churchill's speech of May 11, 1953, paralyzed all efforts to create the European Defense Community and a political unity. This was due to uncertainty as to the outcome of the German elections. However, since the overwhelming majority of the 49 million people of the Federal Republic voted for the policies of Adenauer, this situation has been terminated
