The parties in the Berlin coalition addressed the issue of protecting essential infrastructure, emphasizing the need for an "agenda for greater sovereignty," according to statements by the German executive, Friedrich Merz. He mentioned that protective measures must include restricting public access to information about infrastructure, moving from transparency to a greater capacity for recovery. The German government has already proposed a bill in this regard, which is set to be discussed in the Bundestag. The recent power outage in Berlin, which affected 45,000 households, highlighted Germany's dependence on stable infrastructure. The outage, caused by the burning of high-voltage cables, lasted more than four days, generating a debate about ways to protect essential infrastructure. Authorities suspect a group of left-wing militants behind the attack, but no suspects have been arrested yet.
