The German cabinet has approved legislative key points for a secure basic supply of the population in emergencies. The goal is to guarantee the supply of essential goods such as electricity, water, and food even during natural disasters or other severe crises. The exact contents of the key points were initially not published in detail.
The measures are part of the federal government’s efforts to strengthen the country’s resilience to the consequences of climate change and other threats. The Bundeswehr, which is responsible for ensuring the security of the country and its population, could provide support in an emergency.
