  3. cMinister of Finance (Finanzministerin/Finanzminister)Finanzministerin/Finanzminister
  4. dMinister of the Interior (Innenministerin/Innenminister)Innenministerin/Innenminister

Why?

Thüringen has no foreign minister, because in Germany relations with other countries are handled by the federation (Bund) – this is laid down in the Basic Law (Grundgesetz). The responsible body is the Federal Foreign Office (Auswärtiges Amt) of the federal government. Justice, finance and internal affairs, for example the police, are also tasks of the Länder; there are separate state ministries for them.
