According to German media reports, the ruling coalition of the current Government of Germany is composed of the Social Democrats, the Greens and the Liberal Democratic Party, and the leaders of the three parties are the prime minister, foreign minister and finance minister respectively in accordance with the joint cabinet agreement, and share the power of the government. Among them, the Green Party can be described as an anti-Russian and anti-China backbone, its radicalism is very different from the other two parties, and Foreign Minister Berberk advocated "tough china" as soon as he came to power, which is completely different from Prime Minister Scholtz's pursuit of Merkel's route. Last month, Bellbock spoke to Russia that their move to shut down Nord Stream-2 would not change in the short term, at least not until the end of approval in the first half of this year.
Unexpectedly, this foreign minister's seat had not yet sat for two months, and something happened to the top level of the Green Party. According to Der Spiegel, the Prosecutor's Office in Berlin, Germany, investigated all 6 members of the Green Party's Federal Executive Committee, including Federal Vice Chancellor and Economy Minister Habeck and Federal Foreign Minister Berberk, which has almost completely eliminated the green party's top brass. And the vice president of the Green Party, the Green Party's federal standing committee, the treasurer have been implicated, and many have predicted that this will be a huge scandal.
According to the report, the reason why these people were investigated was that they were "wool" in the state financial subsidy. The Greens, which did not run in the German election two years ago, are catching up with the COVID-19 subsidy, which is stipulated to be 300 euros per public official. But a financial review uncovered a funding loophole, which was allegedly illegally disbursed for up to 1,500 euros (about 10,800 yuan) per person; the traces found that it was likely that these top officials had given them high subsidies, because Green Party auditors had been harshly criticized, arguing that similar subsidies did not fall within the party's rules.
According to the law, this should be a party corruption, and it can be guessed that these people originally divided a "very small part" of the subsidies for themselves from the pool of funds because of the convenience of their positions, and guessed that no one would trace these funds, but it is not known who turned them over. After examining public information, authorities have launched allegations that the Green Party's top brass is using their powers for their own benefit, and the defendant's self-approval of the COVID-19 subsidy may have harmed the Green Party's economic interests. Once the follow-up is confirmed to be true, these high-level officials will face the government's reproach or accountability, and may even resign early. At present, they refuse to admit it, saying only that "the personnel involved and the relevant departments are actively cooperating with the Prosecutor's Office to clarify the matter quickly and thoroughly." ”
It is also worth mentioning that Berberk, who stands on the front line of anti-China and anti-Russia, often opens his mouth to the national righteousness and human rights and freedoms, but in private he is likely to be a "villain" who covets small profits and takes party fees to subsidize himself. Someone commented under the news: "In fact, from the time Merkel stepped down, she had to be prepared to face all kinds of strange things, especially the complex components of the new government, which were mixed with politicians with various ideas." ”
