Den tyske storbank Hypo Real Estate (HRE) står fortsat på gyngende grund med aktiekursfald på op
imod 40 procent på børsen i Frankfurt, selv om forbundsregeringen og en række banker i går havde
lagt 50 milliarder euro (knap 373 mia. kr.) på bordet for at redde realkreditinstituttet.

Det var anden gang på en uge, at regeringen trådte til for at redde boliglånsgiganten.

"Det er fortsat uvist, om redningspakkens volumen denne gang er tilstrækkelig," siger en nervøs
aktieanalytiker.

Og selv om det tyske finansministeriums talsmand betegner HRE som en solid virksomhed, der "blot" er
i akut pengenød, erkender finansminister Peer Steinbrück, at situationen fortsat er "yderst farlig".

"Jeg er udmærket klar over, at vi på et eller andet tidspunkt ikke kan komme videre med
enkeltløsninger," sagde socialdemokraten Steinbrück, som derfor arbejder på en plan B:

"Nu må vi prøve at sprede et sikkerhedsnet ud over hele Tyskland, så vi ikke glider fra den ene sag
over i den næste."

Germany to allow domestic military deployment
By DAVID RISING - 3 hours ago

BERLIN (AP) - Germany's governing coalition partners want to change the constitution to allow for
military deployment within the country if needed to combat terrorism, officials said Monday.

The proposal would allow use of the military only if police are overwhelmed and cannot properly
respond to a situation themselves.

"It is not to be used generally, but only in very specific cases," Interior Ministry spokeswoman
Daniela-Alexandra Pietsch said.

The center-left Social Democratic Party - which makes up half of Chancellor Angela Merkel's
coalition - had been opposed to the proposal but agreed late Sunday after working out an agreement
that includes strict guidelines for domestic deployment.

"We're talking only about emergency help," Social Democrat parliamentary leader Peter Struck said.
For example, the navy could be called to help in a situation where police maritime patrols were not
sufficient, he said.

The proposal will now go to Merkel's Cabinet and then to parliament for approval.

Given Germany's militaristic past, many are hesitant to expand the role of soldiers domestically.
Currently, the German military can be deployed within the country only in times of war, or to help
with emergencies or natural disasters.

Following the announcement of the new proposal, opposition Left Party lawmaker Petra Pau accused the
government of seeking to violate a constitutionally dictated division "between army, police and
secret services."

"The military has no role domestically for historic, political, legal and professional reasons," Pau
said.

Germany used Tornado fighter jets to secure airspace during last year's Group of Eight summit, while
troops helped provide support to police controlling demonstrations.

Merkel's government at the time defended the deployment as necessary to secure the area and provide
technical and logistical support for police. But the opposition Greens party criticized it as "a
creeping breach of the constitution."
