Hans Modrow, last prime minister of East Germany, dies
Hans Modrow, the last prime minister of communist East Germany, has passed away at the age of 95, according to Germany's Left Party.
Modrow became Prime Minister in November 1989. He left office in April 1990.
Who was Hans Modrow?
The former premier later served in the Bundestag of reunified Germany and in the European Parliament. He was a member of the Party of Democratic Socialism (PDS), which was the successor party to former East Germany's ruling Communists (SED) and was later absorbed by the Left Party.
Modrow was sent to Dresden from East Berlin in the 1970s due to the critical distance he maintained form the SED.
In 1990, Modrow's government founded the agency responsible for transitioning East Germany toward a market economy. The "Modrow Law" made it possible for house and farm owners to buy the land on which their property stood.
Opponents accused Modrow of attempting to delay political change and rebrand rather than abolish the Stasi security police.
Modrow was critical of German reunification, arguing that it was carried out too hastily and that the East Germany should have negotiated for more concessions in the process.
In his old age, Modrow continued advising the Left Party and said he felt a "continuing responsibility towards former [East German] citizens."
