The only major airport in Rhineland-Palatinate has filed for bankruptcy.
That calls politics on the scene.
Quarrel is brewing.
Hahn - After Flughafen Frankfurt-Hahn GmbH filed for insolvency, the opposition in the Rhineland-Palatinate state parliament insists on clarification.

The Rhineland-Palatinate Free Voter Group was amazed.
As recently as October 7, the Ministry of the Interior in Mainz reported to the Interior Committee that the arrests of the top management of the ailing Chinese group HNA as the main owner of the Hunsrück airport would not affect continued operations.
"The Ministry of the Interior now urgently needs to provide answers," it said.
The CDU member of the state parliament Karina Wächter criticized with a view to the Hunsrück airport that it was noticeable that no representative of the state government had been there for a long time.
“The employees, their families as well as the numerous companies dependent on Hahn, the people in the Rhein-Hunsrück district are now faced with a great deal of uncertainty.
They worry about jobs, about their future, ”emphasized Wächter.
