    The deadly liquid brother kiss
    The famous photo of the "socialist fraternal kiss" between Erich Honecker and Leonid Brezhnev was taken on October 5, 1979, by photographer Régis Bossu in East Berlin. It was created for the 30th anniversary of the GDR and symbolizes the close ideological bond of the socialist states. The motif later became world-famous as a mural by Dmitri Wrubel titled "My God, Help Me to Survive This Deadly Love" on the Berlin Wall.
