Whether the 55-year-old player was fired or transferred to temporary retirement, was initially open.
Background is a Maaßens farewell speech, in which he spoke of radical left-wing forces in the Social Democrats. According to information from the DPA, Maaßen complained on October 18 to European colleagues in Warsaw that his remarks about the incidents in Chemnitz had been a welcome opportunity for these forces to provoke a break with the grand coalition. He is known in Germany as a critic of security policy and of naive and left aliens. The speech is present on the intranet of the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution since 24 October.
The SPD, the CDU and the opposition have clearly criticized Seehofer, who has long opposed the replacement of Mabadens. The vice-faction of the SPD, Eva Högl, stressed that his party had demanded a dismissal a few weeks ago – "because of its problematic comments after the events of Chemnitz and its apparent tendency to right-wing populist views", she told the editorial network Germany. Seehofer has obviously come to the conclusion. "It only happens very late and makes Mr Seehofer the loser of the evening."
Patrick Sensburg, a member of the CDU-Bundestag, told Seehofer: "This was not a clear administration." He could understand that Maaßen is not doing anything to become a special representative. "It's more like a deportation," he told the German press. The Prime Minister of North Rhine-Westphalia, Armin Laschet (CDU), told the ZDF: "It is an impossible nonsense to beat, what we lived there with Mr. Mabaden and the reactions aroused by the fact that, even if he makes mistakes, he is always encouraged. " This style must end.
Seehofer is at least since the crash of the CSU during the election of the state of Bavaria as party leader under tremendous pressure. CSU should now step down as president. How he continues to deal with the Maaßen cause, remained initially open. In all likelihood, according to information provided by the German news agency Sunday evening, a transfer from the Office of the Protection of the Constitution to temporary retirement.
Seehofer had long resisted the replacement of Mabadens at the head of the national intelligence services. The quarrel sparked a coalition crisis in September that nearly shattered the government. The focus was on Mabadens' statement, he had "no reliable information" before this one in Chemnitz took place hunting foreigners. On August 26 in Chemnitz, a 35-year-old German man was stabbed by asylum seekers, after which xenophobic attacks took place.
The leaders of the CDU, CSU and SPD initially agreed in September that Mabaden would become Secretary of State at the Ministry of the Interior. After a wave of indignation, they then decided that the 55-year-old would be responsible for European and international tasks within the Ministry of the Interior, with the rank of head of department. After Mabad's farewell speech, that too is now off the table.
The Greens of the Bundestag are now calling for a special session of the parliamentary group to review the intelligence services on the new allegations against Mabaden. The FDP has joined the request. Vice President of the FDP faction Stephan Thomae said: "Mr Seehofer must finally make a decision to remove this case, which paralyzes the government's ability to act for too long."
Vice-Left André Hahn said, however, that a special meeting of the control committee was not necessary. Wednesday, in any case, the interior committee of the Bundestag. "Horst Seehofer should then explain himself and take off his hat after defending Mabaden until the end."
