German Defense Minister Thomas de Maiziere (C) joins committee chairperson Susanne Kastner (R) to answer questions from parliamentarians at the Bundestag defense commission on June 10, 2013 in Berlin, Germany. De Maiziere is under increasing pressure following the 'EuroHawk' drone debacle, in which de Maiziere announced recently that the German government would cancel the military project, which has already consumed EUR 562 million, due to the complications with domestic flight certification. The 'EuroHawk' is a modified version of the Northrop Grumman RQ-4 Global Hawk.
