Germany: Lambrecht's son flew with government helicopter on vacation to Sylt
The Easter vacation of Defense Minister Christine Lambrecht (SPD) on Sylt threatens to have a political aftermath: According to a report from Business Insider, Lambrecht's son traveled with a government helicopter on vacation. This shown in a photo on the son's public Instagram profile. You can see the 21-year-old buckled up in the Cougar government helicopter (cost per flight hour: 5,300 euros).
Alexander Lambrecht, who often accompanies his mother to public appearances, posted the photo of himself in the dressing room on April 15. Below the comment "Happy Easter".
Was Lambrecht's son flown in on vacation?
The facade of the Ministry of Defense in Berlin can be seen in the background. On this day his mother was already in Schleswig-Holstein. On April 14, she was a guest at Battalion Electronic Warfare 911 in Stadum and Bramstedtlund. According to information from Business Insider from Bundeswehr circles, she drove from there to Sylt together with bodyguards from the Federal Criminal Police Office.
Was her son flown in on vacation by the flight crew on April 15th? The ministry says that Alexander Lambrecht accompanied his mother to Stadum and Bramstedtlund on April 14. He was not present at the actual visit to the troops. An official request to the Ministry of Defense was still unanswered as of Monday afternoon.
Legally, taking her son with her is not allowed, as there is no federal interest
Legally, taking your son with you is not allowed. A so-called federal interest must also exist in the case of personal escorts.
In mid-April, Business Insider reported exclusively that Defense Minister Lambrecht had spent the Easter holidays on Sylt. Despite the Russian offensive in Ukraine, the minister stayed on the island up to and including Tuesday.
