Max Streibl (6 January 1932 – 11 December 1998) was a German politician of the Christian Social Union (CSU) party and the eighth Minister President of Bavaria.
Career
Streibl served as Bavarian Minister for the Environment (1970–1977), a newly formed ministry, and for Finance (1977–1988). After the sudden death of Franz Josef Strauß in 1988, Streibl succeeded him as Minister President of Bavaria on 19 October 1988.
Streibl was deeply rooted in Catholicism, but soon became unpopular because of alleged bribery (he was paid holiday trips by Burkhart Grob, the chairman of an aircraft production company[1]. Because of this so-called "amigo-affair",[2][3] coming to the surface in January 1993, he was forced to resign on 27 May 1993 and Edmund Stoiber took office, despite the latter being involved in the affair, too.[4] The affair did result in a policy change in Bavaria, aimed at untangling the connections between politics and business.[5]
Streibl's defiant final words upon his resignation, with a tear in his eyes, were "Adios Amigos!".[6]
He retired from politics shortly after and died in December 1998 in Munich.
