21st March 2007: Minister of Finance Peer Steinbrück places the abolition of the letter monopoly in doubt since other European Union countries refused to allow foreign enterprises the right to deliver mail.
Prior to the German federal election, 2013 in summer, German press reported that Hermann Ude allegedly tried to blackmail Peer Steinbrück, the social-democratic candidate for the German chancellorship.
Peer Steinbrück has called for harsh penalties for the banks involved in the scandal, up to the revoking of banking licenses.
