German regions ask government to build new bomb shelters
Land representatives are demanding 10 billion euros for the repair or construction of bomb shelters.
This was reported in a Bild article.
Against the backdrop of the war in Ukraine, representatives of the German regional governments have asked the Interior Ministry to build new bomb shelters.
Representatives of the states are demanding 10 billion euros to repair or build bomb shelters, but the Bundestag has yet to do so.
A Bundestag member has also criticised the government. Andre Bergegger believes that Germany is economising on security and civil protection.
An inventory of existing bomb shelters is due to be completed by spring 2023. Currently, there are only 600 prepared shelters in the country that can accommodate about 500,000 people.
