Union and SPD continue to negotiate






In the black and red coalition talks there are changing formats: specialist teams, smaller circles and the larger 19-year round. Clarifying differences are still a few.

The Union and SPD continue their coalition negotiations after consultations in smaller rounds. This Wednesday, the main negotiating group should come together again, as it was said in the evening from negotiation circles. It includes 19 leading representatives of the three parties around CDU boss Friedrich Merz, CSU boss Markus Söder as well as the SPD chairman Lars Klingbeil and Saskia Esken. The negotiators meet in the Bavarian State Representation in Berlin.

In the evening, a narrow circle had come to the CDU headquarters around the party leaders. Previously, smaller sub -work groups advised central issues such as finances, in which the CDU, CSU and SPD still have to clarify controversial questions. The biggest sticking points in the ongoing negotiations are desired savings in the federal budget, tax and economic policy as well as ways to contain irregular migration.

The coalition negotiations arrive at the third station in the capital with changing party guards: After consultations in the CDU Konrad-Adenauer-Haus and the SPD’s Willy-Brandt-Haus, the state representation of the CSU-led Bavaria in Berlin is now followed.
