AfD Demands Measures Against Raw Material Shortages
Berlin (hib/BLK) – The AfD parliamentary group is calling on the federal government to take urgent measures against the impending raw material shortage. In a motion (20/5681) submitted to the Bundestag, the group demands that the government immediately establish a national raw materials agency and strengthen the strategic raw materials reserve. In addition, the government should create incentives for the domestic extraction and recycling of raw materials.
The AfD warns that a lack of access to critical raw materials could have serious consequences for the German economy. These materials are used in a variety of industries including automotive, electronics, and renewable energy. The group argues that Germany’s dependence on imports for many of these materials makes the country vulnerable to supply disruptions.
The AfD’s motion calls for the establishment of a national raw materials agency that would be responsible for coordinating the government’s efforts to secure the supply of critical raw materials. The agency would also be tasked with developing a comprehensive strategy for the sustainable use of raw materials.
The AfD also wants the government to establish a strategic raw materials reserve. The reserve would be used to ensure that Germany has access to essential raw materials during periods of supply disruptions.
The motion also calls for the government to create incentives for the domestic extraction and recycling of raw materials. This could include providing tax breaks to companies that invest in these activities.
The group argues that these measures are necessary to ensure that Germany has a secure and sustainable supply of raw materials. The motion is expected to be debated in the Bundestag in the coming weeks.
