  • Landessprecher war der Titel der designierten kommissarischen Regierungschefs der neuen Bundesländer kurz nach der deutschen Wiedervereinigung. Im Zuge der deutschen Wiedervereinigung trat die Deutsche Demokratische Republik am 3. Oktober 1990 als fünf neue Bundesländer der Bundesrepublik Deutschland bei. Die Landtagswahlen dieser neuen Bundesländer fanden jedoch erst am 14. Oktober statt und die Wahl der Ministerpräsidenten durch die neu gewählten Landtage geschah von Ende Oktober bis Anfang November. Bis dahin fungierten Landessprecher als die kommissarischen Regierungschefs der jeweiligen Länder. Sie wurden am 3. August von dem Ministerpräsidenten der DDR Lothar de Maizière ernannt, teils mit politischer Kontroverse unter den Bezirken. Die Landessprecher, in dieser Funktion ab 3. Oktober Landesbevollmächtigte genannt, übernahmen wie im Einigungsvertrag vorgeschrieben die Funktion der Regierungschefs. Zudem bestand die Aufgabe der Landessprecher in dem Aufbau der Verwaltung, insbesondere der Zusammenführung der Verwaltung der ehemaligen Bezirke. Landessprecher vertraten ihre jeweiligen Bundesländer im Bundesrat, hatten aber nur eine beratende Stimme. (de)

Between the reunification and the election of the respective Minister-President, appointed state commissioner took on the role of heads of government, as stipulated by the German Reunification Treaty. These state commissioner also represented their respective state in the Bundesrat, but only had an advisory vote. They had been appointed by Minister-President of the GDR Lothar de Maizière on 3 August 1990 as Landessprecher (English: State Speaker). Most state commissioners had previously served as Regierungsbevollmächtigte for one of the Bezirke of the GDR that would later be re-organized to the New states; Brick for Neubrandenburg, Wolf for Potsdam, Krause for Leipzig and Duchač for Erfurt. There was some political controversy as to which Regierungsbevollmächtigter would become Landessprecher. Except for Karl-Hermann Steinberg, who was revealed to have worked for the East German Stasi, all state commissioners were elected to the respective Landtag and were appointed state ministers: * was appointed Minister for Food, Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern * Jochen Wolf was appointed Minister for Urban Development, Housing and Transportation of Brandenburg * was appointed State Minister of the Interior of Saxony Josef Duchač succeeded himself as Minister-President of Thuringia.
