I was visiting Berlin from Australia at the time. I couldn't get to the speech because they shut down all the train stations. I visited the wall the next day and found the speech in the dirt near the Brandenburg Gate. It has the first page missing but includes the words' Mr Gorbachev, tear down this gate, Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall.' I still have it, including the mud stains. I assume it was a copy of the speech maybe dropped by a journalist. Both speeches are in English. I have a copy of this speech and also the one Mayor Diepgen gave.
