“I am not the German Tony Blair. Nor am I the German Bill Clinton. I am Gerhard Schroeder, chancellor of Germany, responsible for Germany. I don't want to be a copy of anyone.”
Gerhard Schroeder
“If Schroeder is blocking her chancellorship -- as he appears to be -- then it's not looking good for Frau Merkel.”
Dietmar Herz
“[After Clinton's afternoon calls to British Prime Minister Tony Blair and Schroeder, the official said the three were in] complete unity ... a path of peace or a path of more conflict.”
Slobodan Milosevic
“When I was really little, I wanted to be like Schroeder from the Peanuts comics. There was something about that Beethoven he'd play that made the hair on the back of my neck stand up.”
Christine Anderson
“To be fair with Schroeder, he tried and by European standards he did do more than other governments in the past few years. But the problems in Germany are more entrenched now.”
Lorenzo Codogno
“There were 21 million viewers and their verdict was that Schroeder had won the duel. It was clear.”
Manfred Guellner
“During the last three years, Schroeder has revived Germany's close relations with France in ways that damaged ties with the United States, the UK and the countries of central and Eastern Europe.”
