CDU/CSU: We need an immediate program for the economy

The relationship between the chancellor, Olaf Scholz, and the head of the CDU, Friedrich Merz, is known to be not the best, nor is the communication between the coalition government and the opposition generally good. Thus the opposition uses the written word to make its voice heard. The parliamentary group of the CDU/CSU has sent a letter to the chancellor, Olaf Scholz, which is in the hands of the ARD studio in Berlin. The two leaders of the parliamentary groups, Friedrich Merz and Alexander Dobrindt, write that they are very concerned about the state of the German economy and define 12 measures to increase the competitiveness of German companies.

Limiting social spending to 40%

The measures requested by the leaders of the opposition include, among others, the reduction of the electricity tax to the minimum European level, the limitation of social expenses to 40% and the possibility of flexible working hours. In the letter, the Ministers of Finance and Economy are also mentioned, they are asked to relieve companies from taxes, which both ministers offered these days as a measure for the economy. "If the announcements of your two cabinet ministers remain without any effect, this will result in further uncertainty and greater disappointment for many companies," the letter said.

For weeks there has been a harsh tone between the opposition and the government in Germany. The conflict reached a boiling point in the general debate in the Bundestag last week, when Merz addressed Scholz with the words "keep it to yourself and spare us calls for future cooperation".

The call to the chancellor is more of an appeal than an offer for talks with the government. The CSU and the CSU want to present the immediate program for the economy in plenary sessions in the Bundestag next week and call on the chancellor to "join the package of immediate measures and achieve the necessary unity for this within the coalition. But the government currently plans to its measures to ease the economy. Recently, the Minister of Economy, Robert Habeck and Minister of Finance, Christian Lindner were of the same opinion, when they said that Germany is no longer capable of international competition./ DW
