Article reports that the German government was preparing in the autumn of 2011 to take a stake in European aerospace company EADS after no buyers for part of Daimler’s holding came forward.

The German government viewed Daimler’s holding as a counterweight to the 22.5% held by the French government and media group Lagardère – and a guarantee that production will stay in Germany as well as France.
