  • The Treaty of West Berlin signed on August 15th, 1968 brought an end to the 2nd French Revolution. President Charles de Gaulle did not want to return to France in order to sign the treaty because he feared for his safety. His proposed location for signing the treaty, Frankfurt however did not sit well with the representatives of the various rebel groups in France. They feared a plot to hold them hostage as a desperate last attempt to stop the revolution. Philippe Comte, an avowed marxist-leninist and major revolutionary met with diplomats from the USSR and arranged a deal where President de Gaulle would go to West Berlin and then the revolutionary delegates would go there and sign the treaty. If German authorities arrested them the USSR would invade West Berlin. The United States threatened retaliation if the USSR invaded West Berlin, but the USSR held firm. However, the revolutionary delegates arrived in West Berlin and agreed to a treaty without incident. Still this incident heightened tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union.
