Walldorf (dpa/th) - Ex-Migration Minister Dirk Adams has criticized the actions of the Greens state executive when there was a change in personnel in the Thuringian state government. To this day there is no clear reason why the board asked Prime Minister Bodo Ramelow (left) to dismiss him as minister, Adams said on Saturday at a state delegate conference of the Greens in Walldorf near Meiningen. "It has to come to the table what was wrong," said Adams, who was also the leader of the Greens in the Thuringian state parliament for a time.
"Never do that with a person again," he appealed to his party to deal with each other. Even if he no longer connects with the current state executive, he will remain "a responsible Green" and continue to belong to the party.
Adams, whose work as migration and justice minister was subtly criticized within the Greens, but also in the red-red-green coalition government, had to resign the ministerial office against his will at the end of January. The board had proposed the former police officer Doreen Denstädt, who has been the first black female minister in East Germany since February, as his successor.
