📢Gerhard Hegmann (Die Welt) on X: "Das Thema einer Staatsbürgschaft für das in Finanznot geratene Flugtaxi-Unternehmen Lilium kommt jetzt doch auf die Tagesordnung beim Haushaltsausschuss. Bei der Sitzung (...) soll auf Antrag der CDU/CSU-Fraktion über den Sachstand informiert werden. Dies geht aus einem Ergänzungsantrag zur Tagesordnung hervor. Der Freistaat Bayern und der Bund sollen je 50 Mio. Euro Bürgschaft leisten. Für Lilium ist nach eigenen Angaben dies als "Signal der Unterstützung" notwendig, um weiteres privates Kapital zu gewinnen. Bayern hat bereits grünes Licht gegeben. Zuletzt gab es aber im Bundestag erhebliche Vorbehalte gegen die Bürgschaft. Der Haushaltsausschuss tagt zwei Tage - Mittwoch + Donnerstag 16. + 17. Oktober. Das Thema Lilium ist erst am zweiten Tag, also am Donnerstag, vorgesehen." https://lnkd.in/e_3jtJfz #Lilium #eVTOL $LILM
