Helmut Schmidt led West Germany from 1974 to 1982 amid a world economic crisis and one of the frostiest phases of the Cold War. At home in both security and economics, Schmidt became the supreme 'strategist of balance' and earned the nickname of 'world economist'. It was during his chancellorship that West Germany came of age on the global stage.
