Police Union VP Manuel Ostermann Calls for Clear Language on Societal Issues
Manuel Ostermann, vice chairman of the Federal Police Union (DPolG) and bestselling author, has been vocal about the challenges facing social security in Germany. In a recent appearance on Bavarian Broadcasting's podcast 'Kaffee, extra schwarz', he discussed hatred towards police officers and the need for clear language to address societal issues.
Ostermann sees the consistent combat of all forms of extremism, including left-wing extremism and Islamism, as the greatest challenge for social security. He hopes for a Germany where security structures work closely together, bureaucracy hurdles are reduced, and the infrastructure is comprehensively strengthened.
Ostermann, who will speak at the 61st Malchower Format in Malchow on October 8th, believes that politics should prioritize the interests of the German people and seriously address the migration crisis. His book, 'Germany is no longer safe. How our police is torn between politics and the street', reflects his concerns about the state of policing in the country.
Despite being the vice chairman of DPolG, Ostermann does not define himself as a successor to Rainer Wendt, the federal chairman of the trade union. Instead, he focuses on doing his job to the best of his knowledge and conscience.
