During his state visit to the Federal Republic of Germany from June 23 to 26, 1963, U.S. President John F. Kennedy met with leading representatives of West German politics, including Federal President Heinrich Lübke. The visit took place in the context of the Cold War and the division of Germany, which had been intensified by the construction of the Wall in 1961. Kennedy’s journey served to reaffirm the transatlantic partnership and the American security guarantee for the Federal Republic and West Berlin.
