SCHOLZ: Traffic light disaster? Now even the Chancellor is breaking his silence - with a curious comparison
Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) has admitted that there are ongoing difficulties in the traffic light coalition. The formation of a coalition between the three parties after the last federal election "was difficult enough, and it has remained difficult," said Scholz on Monday evening at a citizens' dialogue in Bremen. He called on the coalition to work together well: The current difficult political situation "increases the demand for good governance and - I say this now with the authority to issue guidelines - for good behavior."
The difficult decision-making process in the coalition is overshadowing the public's performance record, which has set many of the course for Germany's modernization. "Nobody has noticed that yet," Scholz lamented. "All that remains in people's memory is the discussion process and not what it has achieved."
The coalition must better highlight its successes: "I hope that those responsible in the parties learn that they can list everything that has been decided," said the Chancellor.
Scholz identified the "fragmentation of the political landscape" as a fundamental problem. In previous years, one larger and one smaller party were often enough to form a federal government - with correspondingly simpler decision-making. "It will almost certainly never be like this again, it will remain complicated," Scholz predicted.
