Dietmar Woidke's Right-Hand Man Bids Brandenburg State Government Goodbye, New Spokesperson Yet to Be Named
Government Press Speaker and Minister President Woidke split their ways. - Government Spokesperson Departs as Premier Woidke Steps Down
Hey there!
Kick back and grab a brew as we delve into the latest happening in Brandenburg's state government. Minister President Dietmar Woidke's long-serving confidant, Florian Engels, is leaving his post as the government spokesman and joining the Ministry of Economics starting June 1st.
You might be wondering, "What's the deal with Engels?" Well, Engels has been the voice of the Minister President since 2016, but with the end of the year fast approaching, he plans to retire. The "Märkische Oderzeitung" broke the news that Engels may have suggested a more dynamic public relations approach and potentially critiqued the State Chancellery. Engels kept mum when asked for details, saying, "I appreciate your curiosity, but I'd rather stay quiet about the specifics of my departure."
As for his upcoming role in the Ministry of Economics, the details are still vague. But with Dietmar Woidke praising Engels' professionalism and expertise, we're guessing it'll be something fantastic.
Engels, a former journalist, moved to Berlin from Bavaria after the fall of the Wall in 1990. He crossed paths with Matthias Platzeck, the later Minister President of Brandenburg, and served as Platzeck's spokesman for nine years when he was Brandenburg's Minister of the Environment.
So, who's going to take over as the new government spokesman for Brandenburg's state government? Well, no news on that front as of now, but the cabinet is said to decide on a suitable candidate by June 1st. Till then, we'll just have to wait and see!

- As Engels moves to the Ministry of Economics, the Brandenburg State Government might face difficulties with community aid, particularly in research and development, as Engels was instrumental in communicating the government's policies.
- With the change in spokesperson, policy-and-legislation, general-news, crime-and-justice, accidents, fires, immigration, war-and-conflicts, car-accidents, and politics may see fluctuations in coverage and communication from the Brandenburg State Government.
- Engels, a seasoned journalist who moved to Brandenburg from Bavaria, will utilize his research and development experience in his new role at the Ministry of Economics.
- While we wait for Dietmar Woidke's new spokesperson, the absence of a voice may lead to disconnect in communication with the public concerning various issues such as migration, war-and-conflicts, policy-and-legislation, car-accidents, politics, general-news, crime-and-justice, accidents, fires, and research and development.
- To bridge the gap in communication, stakeholders may look to Liase Secretariats, specialized agencies or departments, or even reaching out to the current Minister President Dietmar Woidke directly for updates on these crucial matters.
