This video is an interview , where the reporter is Adam Lashinsky and the guest is Dan Akerson , who is CEO of General motors. They are talking about government´s investments in GM. Adam Lashinsky claimed that government has about 32% of GM , on what CEO said that they repaid all of thier debt back to the government, they sold out over 62% of the company and 23 billion dollars have been returned, so now Dan owns only 27% of the company and U.S. government is one of a larger shareholder of the company, but they don´t have representation in a boardroom.
Also they were talking about interaction between GM and government. Dan said that he hasn´t got a sense what government timeline is. At the end Dan mentioned that he was talking to president twice since he became a CEO, the president is a supporter of the company , but memebers of government don´t involve themselves in running business.
