Stasi-Mann becomes Thuringia's Environment Minister-Politicalquake in Erfurt!

Thüringen, Deutschland - It crackles in Thuringia! The new CDU head of government Mario Voigt presented his cabinet on Friday morning-and ensured a sensation directly. For the first time in the history of the Federal Republic, a head of government appoints a former member of the GDR Security Service to his team. Tilo Kummer (56), a BSW politician, becomes the new environmental minister and also takes responsibility for energy, nature conservation and forestry.

A truly explosive step that ensures plenty of discussion! Kummer, who was not a direct member of the SED in his past, but was very close to the party, voluntarily served as a soldier in the dreaded Stasi wax regiment "Feliks Dzierzynski". Some of them twitch together in the state parliament on Friday morning - after all, this decision writes a new chapter in the political history of the Federal Republic.

The big chair in Thuringia

The cabinet list is long and the distribution of the item is exciting as a thriller. The Alliance Sahra Wagenknecht (BSW) secured a total of three ministries under the clever tour of Mario Voigt. In addition to the Ministry of the Environment, the BSW also takes over the important Ministry of Finance with the former Left Mayor Katja Wolf (48). The latter is even promoted to the vice head of government. A touch of freshness- entrepreneur and career changer Steffen Schütz (58) is mixed with digital and infrastructure minister. Topics such as building, living and urban development are now taking place under his direction.

CDU: On the way to the sole government?

The CDU gets most of the cake with four ministries. The entrepreneur Colette Boos-John (55), now responsible for economy, agriculture and rural areas, is pushing forward. The dynamic CDU MP Christian Tischner (43), who has already defeated the AfD right from Björn Höcke in the constituency, is the new Minister of Education and thus draws the threads into science and culture. An impressive creation! Furthermore, the tried and tested Beate Meißner (42) ensures order in the Justice, Migration and Consumer Protection Ministry, while Stefan Gruhner (40), as head of the State Chancellery, holds the strategic reins for federal and Europe affairs. This is also made by Image reported.

Overall, the SPD receives two ministries. Georg Maier (57) remains firmly anchored at the helmet of the Interior Ministry, while Katharina Schenk (36) takes care of social, health, work and family. A pure balancing act that gives the post -communist state colors an unexpected new facet in Thuringia!
