“But this catastrophe also shows us dramatically that any investment in our armed forces is also an investment in security. I would like to thank the 100 soldiers who are currently on site, as well as all aid organizations such as the volunteer fire brigade and the water rescue service for their unconditional commitment,” said the chancellor.
