Parties: “No Sayer Party” – FDP veteran Baum reprimands the liberals

“It’s all too rational for me,” says the FDP veteran of his own party. He himself would have made different decisions about the speed limit. On the other hand, there is praise for a Green politician.

The FDP veteran Gerhart Baum has criticized his own party for its actions in the climate crisis and advocated a speed limit on motorways.

“The FDP always acts as a naysayer party,” he told the podcast “Die Wochentester” published on Friday by the “Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger” and the editorial network Germany. “Do you really trust her to fight climate change? I would have put a speed limit on the freeways long ago.”

The 89-year-old former Federal Minister of the Interior (1978-1982), on the other hand, praised a Green politician of all people: “I miss the position that Mr. Habeck takes in the FDP. It’s all too cold and too rational for me,” he said. “I have a certain skepticism about the attitude of the FDP to the state. The state is not evil. It has important tasks,” the former top politician continued to criticize his own party.
