CSU’s Land Group Chief Alexander Dobrindt demands a “dynamic coalition agreement” for the future government. “Politics must remain adaptable. That’s why we will have a new form of coalition agreement, one that will no longer be a straitjacket for the next four years” he said at the CSU’s Klausur in Kloster Seeon to the news portal T-Online.
According to him, the agreement should include a plan for a political change in the first six months of the government’s term, with clear implementation commitments. “It often took too long for things in the past. We need a government with a functional guarantee, not a traffic light malfunction” Dobrindt said.
“The six months are set in stone, and then we will agree on common goals, but not do any legislative work in the coalition agreement” the CSU politician said. The rest will then be developed by government parties during the legislative period. Referring to past crises like the Corona pandemic or the Russian attack on Ukraine, Dobrindt said, “Politics must be able to react to changing situations.”
Asked about potential coalition partners, Dobrindt remained open: “The coalition partner could be the SPD. Other coalitions are not ruled out. It depends on which parties will be part of the German Bundestag in the future and with whom we can agree the most.”
He made an exception for the Greens, saying, “The Greens are not governable, a political change with them is not imaginable. The green party is clearly not able to grasp the reality of migration, the economic reality, or the security reality in Germany and change it in a way that it meets the acceptance of the population.” A government with the Greens would mean further damage for the country, the CSU’s Land Group Chief said.
