German Chancellor Dr. Angela Merkel and Chief of the German Chancellery
Ronald Pofalla today welcomed a delegation of GM Executives led by CEO
Dan Akerson. Akerson was accompanied by Steve Girsky, Deputy Chairman of
the GM Board and Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Adam Opel AG, by
Dr. Karl-Thomas Neumann, Chairman of the Management Board of Adam Opel
AG and President General Motors Europe, as well as Joachim Koschnicke,
Vice President Public Policy at Adam Opel AG.
General Motors informed Chancellor Merkel about the deliberations
that took place during the strategy conference (BOD) held from April 9
-11, 2013 in Germany. Focus was on the progress in implementing Opel’s
ten-year plan “DRIVE!2022” as well as on the difficult environment in
Europe. Another important topic was General Motors’ clear commitment to
Germany and to Opel.
“GM and Opel have been together since 1929 and will stay together.
And together we will also return to profitability in Europe. We have the
strategy. We have the team. We have the cars. Germany is and remains
the home and the backbone of Opel,” said Dr. Karl-Thomas Neumann after
the meeting with the Chancellor.
