German Transport Minister Peter Ramsauer (L/CSU), German Defence Minister Thomas de Maiziere (CDU) and German Agriculture Minister Ilse Aigner (CSU) wait for U.S. President Barack Obama's speech in front of Brandenburg Gate at Pariser Platz in Berlin June 19, 2013. Obama's first presidential visit to Berlin comes nearly 50 years to the day after John F. Kennedy landed in a divided Berlin at the height of the Cold War and told encircled westerners in the city "Ich bin ein Berliner", a powerful signal that America would stand by them.
