I have now thought about it for a long time and written a long text in response.

There are many statistics. The page I got from you is very difficult to read. Was it Mrs Klöckner's intention at the time? The lady who was responsible for this page is very well known to me😊).

More commercial forest, less virgin forest.
Everyone can figure out for themselves exactly what a commercial forest is.
Overall, we have lost 6.6% of forest area since 2012. Here is a simple statistic.

Please remain friendly and don't accuse your counterpart of lying without knowing what he thinks. That is not really a basis for discussion.
