- During exploratory talks, the Left, Greens and SPD agreed to end the cooperation if they form a coalition.
- Pistorius called the plan completely incomprehensible because the agreement had only been concluded in June.
- According to Pistorius, the plan would probably not end youth officers, but make individual schools reassess invitations.
- Given the heightened threat environment, Pistorius said the Bundeswehr needed unequivocal political support, including at state level.
The termination of the cooperation agreement in Berlin would be a signal against the German armed forces and their important mission. This signal must not come from Berlin.— Boris Pistorius, Federal Minister of Defence (SPD), commenting on the planned termination of the cooperation agreement between Berlin's education administration and the Bundeswehr.
