Germany has drawn up an eight-point programme to be tackled at the G8 summit in June, ranging from climate change to Africa's problems, chancellery minister Thomas de Maiziere said on Friday.
De Maiziere said leaders of the Group of Eight most industrialised nations will discuss the way forward on fighting climate change and global warming after the Kyoto Protocol on greenhouse emissions expires in 2012.
De Maiziere said Berlin has put hedge funds and fighting protectionism on the agenda of the June 6-8 summit which Germany as current president of the club is hosting in Heiligendamm on the Baltic Sea.
de Maiziere joined the East German Christian Democratic Union in 1957, and in 1986 was chosen a deputy chairman.
de Maiziere is married and the father of three daughters.
his uncle Ulrich de Maiziere used to be the inspector general of the West German Army, and his cousin Thomas de Maiziere is a spokesman for the Christian Democrats in West Berlin.
De Maiziere is accused of having withheld important information about the corruption affair from state authorities during his tenure as Saxony's interior minister, from 2004-2005.
Former East German prime minister Lothar de Maiziere said it had been essential for his party -- the Christian-Democratic Union (CDU) -- to hold a majority in the "People's Chamber" of the former German Democratic Republic (GDR) in 1990 as it made democratic reform easier following the collapse of the communist regime.
Under his leadership, de Maiziere said his government froze the assets of the Socialist Unity Party of Germany (SED.
At first, the SED showed some resistance but de Maiziere said they did not dare attack the commission because it was chaired by a respected lawyer and teacher of the SED chairman.
De Maiziere has said he didn't have enough information on the case to warrant informing the state parliament's oversight committee while he was interior minister.
On May 11, 2007, Agence France Presse, citing chancellery minister Thomas de Maiziere, reported that De Maiziere said leaders of the Group of Eight most industrialised nations will discuss the way forward on fighting climate change and global warming after the Kyoto Protocol on greenhouse emissions expires in 2012.
