Hubert Gehring, Czech Republic/Germany
Dear Mrs Němcová, Ladies and gentlemen, It is a great honour for me to welcome you to the second day of this conference in the name of the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung in Prague. I am glad that the conference is today dedicated to important aspects of coming to terms with communist crimes, namely to their legal appraisal and treatment. The presence of eminent national and international discussion participants and chairs, and the patronage of the Czech government no less, attests to the importance of this subject. Special thanks belongs to the organisers, including the Institute for the Study of Totalitarian Regimes and also partners from the European Platform of Memory and Conscience.
