politics

Jürgen Augustinowitz joined the Junge Union in 1979 , of which he was district chairman for a long time. In 1981 he joined the CDU and was involved in the Christian-Democratic workforce . In his party he was part of the executive district board of Soest .

From December 20, 1990 to October 26, 1998, he was twice a member of the German Bundestag (CDU) for the constituency of Soest ( North Rhine-Westphalia ). He was able to clearly win the constituency in the federal elections in 1990 and 1994 with almost 50% of the votes. In the Bundestag he sat for his parliamentary group as a full member of the Defense Committee and as a deputy member of the Committee on Economic Cooperation and Development.

In a conflict over a revaluation of the gold reserves in 1996, Augustinowitz opposed the CDU Federal Finance Minister Theo Waigel . He did not want to support this course and said that he could not support a decision that would affect the stability of the mark or the independence of the Bundesbank.

As a defense expert for his parliamentary group, he warned his party colleagues in 1995 that the Bundeswehr in its former form would have no future. Due to the high number of conscientious objectors, the number of 340,000 soldiers would be considerably endangered. He also advocated deploying the Bundeswehr soldiers in Germany. Together with his party colleague Rupert Scholz , he offered the Lower Saxony government helicopters and soldiers at the so-called Chaostage in Hanover in 1996 .
