MUNICH (Reuters) - The German government should support Lufthansa (DE:LHAG) as it tackles the coronavirus crisis but the flagship carrier should not be nationalised, Bavarian State Premier Markus Soeder said on Monday.
"Lufthansa should not be nationalised," said Soeder - head of the Christian Social Union (CSU), sister party to Chancellor Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats (CDU).
Soeder added that the government should be a silent partner in the airline rather than a shareholder and should exit soon after the crisis.
