To ease the complications, the politburo led by Krenz decided on November 9, to allow refugees to exit directly through crossing points between East Germany and West Germany, including West Berlin.

Over the years there has been repeatedly a controversial debate[66] whether November 9 would have made a suitable German national holiday, often initiated by former members of political opposition in East Germany like Werner Schulz.[67] Besides the emotional apogee of East Germany's peaceful revolution 9 November is also the date of the end of the Revolution of 1848 and the date of the declaration of the first German republic, the Weimar Republic, in 1918. However, November 9 is also the anniversary of the 1923 Beer Hall Putsch and the infamous Kristallnacht pogroms of 1938 and, therefore, October 3 was chosen instead.
