'More changemakers from the economy in politics needed'

Rainer Dulger, the president of the employer association, congratulates CDU leader Friedrich Merz for his plan to appoint Katherina Reiche as the new economic minister. In an interview with the “Süddeutsche Zeitung”, Dulger praised Reiche’s economic thinking and political approach, stating that she would be a valuable addition to the cabinet. Dulger emphasized the need for more politicians with a background in business and commended Merz for considering Reiche’s qualifications. As the CEO of the energy company Westenergie and a former member of the Bundestag, Reiche brings a wealth of experience to the table. Dulger urges the incoming government to reduce bureaucracy and implement a modern energy policy that will make electricity affordable.
