After a joint meeting, former Minister of Transport and CSU politician Andreas Scheuer is counting on good cooperation with the controversial US governor DeSantis. This triggers strong criticism.
A meeting of several CSU politicians with the governor of the US state of Florida, Ron DeSantis, has triggered criticism. “If DeSantis’ policy is a role model for the CSU, then good night,” said the federal government’s queer commissioner, Sven Lehmann (Greens), the editorial network Germany (RND / Friday). “The right-wing politician is leading a culture war in Florida against women and against lesbians, gays and transgender people. His laws are an acute threat to minorities.”
Former Transportation Minister Andreas Scheuer shared photos of a meeting with Republican Governor DeSantis on Twitter on Friday. Among other things, the defense policy spokesman for the Union parliamentary group, Florian Hahn, and the vice-chairman of the Union parliamentary group, Dorothee Bär, can be seen. Scheuer wrote: “The governor’s strong strategic and foreign policy assessments highlight the transatlantic cooperation.”
Florida recently expanded its ban on teaching about sexual orientation or gender identity. With a few exceptions, the regulation applies up to and including the twelfth grade.
