Berlin – Federal Defense Minister Christine Lambrecht has been criticized for a helicopter flight with her son.

He therefore accuses Lambrecht of having written on her private Instagram account about a visit to a “top secret” unit in connection with her controversial helicopter flight with her son.
According to the lawyer, such a designation of the unit already satisfies the suspicion of the betrayal of official secrets,

The same can apply to the publication of photos.

The complaint went to the public prosecutor's office in Berlin.
Lambrecht has been criticized because on Wednesday before Easter, accompanied by her son, she traveled from Berlin in a government helicopter to visit the troops in Schleswig-Holstein.
Then she went on vacation with her son to Sylt.
According to the Federal Ministry of Defence, such a journey is permissible.
Lambrecht therefore assumed the costs as required.
Nevertheless, a majority of Germans spoke out in favor of Lambrecht's resignation.
