  3. ↑ Deppe appears several times in the GDR press from 1977 onwards, for example in Neues Deutschland of March 12, 1983: "The need for the workers' movement to come together and the peace movement underlined by Professor Dr. Frank Deppe. He described the attempts to isolate the trade unions from the peace movement as failed . This gave the working class a great opportunity not only to increase their insights into the global dangers of armament policy and missile deployment, but also to help the realization that pressing social problems cannot be solved without disarmament and detente.
