spannungsfall

This new law removed this condition and preemptively "activated" the requirement even before the Spannungsfall was declared.

Interestingly, the travel permit requirement already existed in law before, but it was tied to the Spannungsfall/Verteidigungsfall conditions.

Back then, limitations on "Spannungsfall" and "Verteidigungsfall" were in place which have been removed last year.

But when one group of allies and another state behave the current way, "Spannungsfall" might be reached easily when policy makers declare that has now happened once again after the fall of the eastern block wall.

If it were to get closer to war (i.e., Spannungsfall, let alone the Verteidigungsfall) a set of laws would unlock that allow control of various areas of life and the economy anyway.
