He joins me via skype from groton, austria. Good morning to you, peter. Welcome to the program. Is it justified to fork out even more money to a sector, which essentially seems to just have been late to the party . Good morning. So definitely yes. If you look at the german Automotive Industry, which is millions of jobs in directly and indirectly employee eat, its absolutely not only right, but its always absolutely necessary to support that industry to keep the industry in its transformation. What do you make of the fact that the state and stumbling its purpose is incentive on manufacturers are not having to pitch in more definitely to manufacture a seed need to understand the situation of not only deal with ems but also off the supplier industry. And this is potentially the biggest crisis to us faced in their 100 plus years history. So if you look at the, at the programs to boost electric vehicles and not only support them but also push them to a transformation to electric mobility. I think the mission is i read the balanced and if you look what it is, steak, it absolutely makes sense to build on the success of to programs like they know whats he wants to extend it and to help to notch to market in the right direction. And it said it, its, there are 3 players who need to play in india to make it successful. Its the government, its the industry itself. And of course its the consumers. So we need measures in all 3 levels to make this a challenge success not only for the child, but also to reach the climate goals of the European Union and of the federal republic of germany. Now if we look at the ema building sector, obviously the big job or not here will german carmakers be able to catch up with this additional Financial Support from the state .

In terms of source to clearly, there is a big fuss about tesla. Some things are really very quick. What this law has done in the past, but the german industry as a whole has fully understand what is behind his fully and taken on the challenge of digitalisation. And they are really working hard on that. So i would say there is some very fair chance that the chairman industry can catch up and potentially overtaken some segments. And finally, as scrapping bonus to get old trucks and commercial vehicles off the road is also being talked about in order to get less polluting ones onto the road. Is that the right step . That the cash for Clunkers Program . Yes, if it is focused on electric vehicles, just replace dirty internal Combustion Engine because it was less dirty ones. I think that should be a last resort. You know, if they, if the economy is not beaking up and they will cope with crisis, if its true long, long and then expect that then it might make sense to save jobs. But currently it is much more smart today to do not just the industry in the direction of electric mobility, hydrogen also included of course, to, to, to speed up that transformation to defend all of our time comes all the same.
