Government in Baden-Württemberg adequately prepares for potential floods.
The quick actions of emergency personnel prevented a worst-case scenario, like a sinkhole swallowing an entire power plant. Minister Kretschmann once again insisted on a liability insurance plan for natural disasters. "There's no way out," he said. But Federal Justice Minister Marco Buschmann (FDP) still refuses to make it happen. Meanwhile, Environment Minister Thekla Walker (Greens) urged frequent inspections of current defense systems. "We need to keep an eye on things," she stated. It's unfortunate that two lives were lost in Baden-Württemberg.
