Greens criticize Dobrindt because of problems at the drone defense center in Berlin

The Greens accuse Federal Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt (CSU) of covering up problems related to the drone defense center in Berlin. “The federal government's failures in identifying and defending against hybrid threats are massive overall,” criticized Konstantin von Notz, deputy chairman of the Parliamentary Control Committee and deputy parliamentary group leader of the Greens, to the Tagesspiegel and speaks of “the federal government's lack of orientation and concept” in the face of Russia's increasingly aggressive actions.

Dobrindt presented the center last December. “But there are considerable doubts about the actual ability to work and deploy,” said von Notz. “Instead of eliminating these and ensuring the effectiveness of the center, Alexander Dobrindt is once again ducking away.” Instead of dealing with problems in the drone defense center, Dobrindt is building a new research center.
