Det var meget venligt af Dem at tænke på min kære mor, som i morgen ganske rigtigt æres for at have været medlem af CDU i 50 år, hvilket - med forlov - beviser, at ej heller store kvinder er fejlfrie!
It is very kind of you to think of my dear mother who will indeed be honoured tomorrow for her fifty-year membership of the CDU, which, let me say, is proof that even great women can sometimes make mistakes!
