The forecast on this blog concerning the new German Government was more or less correct.
The new Defence Minister is Ursula von der Leyen, a member of the CDU.
By trade she is a medical doctor. She is the mother of seven chidren.
On the Gunther Jauch Show this evening Gregor Gysi, leader of The Left Party, joked that it would be most unlikely that a woman of seven children would lead Germany into a war.
Thomas de Mazière, who was the former Defence Minister, returns to a former job he had - Minister for the Interior. It means he is back in charge of the BND - the German Secret Service.
There are six women in the new Government, three from the SPD and three from the CDU. All three CSU ministers are men.
Andrea Nahles, SPD Secretary, is new Employment Minister.
