Did Bouillon get the tone wrong? Saar politicians demand dismissal

But the Saarland political scene ran hot throughout the day. The European political spokesman for the Saar-Liberals Francois Simons said: "Minister Boullion's statements lack the decency required for his office. With the statements in Today's Journal, he fuels resentment in an extremely sensitive European political situation. "

Simons concluded his statement by saying: "As a minister in the most European of all federal states, Boullion no longer has a place. He must correct his statements immediately. Otherwise, the ball lies with Tobias Hans, who then has to decide that Boullion can no longer be part of the Saarland state government "

The Saarbrücken SPD member of the Bundestag, Josephine Ortleb, was critical: "The statement by Saarland's interior minister Klaus Bouillon is dangerous for Saarland. With his testimony, he tears the Franco-German bond of friendship to shreds, tearing everything we have historically managed with our neighbors. Such rhetoric is unacceptable - it must have consequences. Prime Minister Hans must finally dismiss Klaus Bouillon as Minister."

Jean-Luc Reitzer, the local MP for the Haut-Rhin department who was the first French lawmaker to test positive for the virus, is among those in intensive care.

Local authorities said late Monday that there were 193 cases of coronavirus in the Haut-Rhin region where Mulhouse is located, one of the highest concentrations in France.

Most of the cases in all of eastern France were linked to the meeting of the Christian Open Door Church in Mulhouse from February 17th to 24th, a statement by the local authorities said.
