25 years after the first murder by the right-wing extremist NSU, Saxony's Interior Minister Armin Schuster (CDU) sees great progress being made by the security authorities in the fight against the right. "No stone has been left unturned here", Schuster told Deutschlandfunk radio. Following the investigation into the NSU murders, there have been extensive reforms at the security authorities. Nevertheless, Schuster, who used to be the chairman of the CDU/CSU parliamentary group in the Committee on Internal Affairs, emphasized: "Something like this can happen again, but the probability is dramatically lower than it was back then."
The "National Socialist Underground" (NSU) murdered ten people undetected for years - including nine tradespeople of Turkish and Greek origin and a policewoman. Looking back, Schuster spoke of a complete system failure, because at the time no one had expected such political attacks from the right. This is also different today.
