Traditionally, the right of the strongest opposition faction to open common debate in budgetary consultations of the Bundestag. Weidel knew how to use this privilege on Wednesday, speaking only about budget negotiations. Instead, she rose under the hunting applause of her faction about “incompatible cultures”, the alleged Islamization of Germany, “which is fast and aggressive”, as well as the “high criminal burden of some groups of the population”. There was nothing from the moderation that was heard in her appearance, which AFD recently applied on Wednesday.
When Chancellor Friedrich Merza headed for Lecretion after her, he accused Weidel “purely nationalist speech.” “Half of the amendments, the evil recovery and personal abbreviations, no one in democracy should simply be accepted without prejudice,” said Boss CDU.
Mertz causes the implementation of mood changes
The new government of the Union and SPD was in position for 65 days. For Mercke, this was the first speech as a chancellor in budget debate. In his speech, he is largely satisfied with self -confidence. He explained that in the last few weeks, “changing mood” has succeeded.
Merts was convinced that budget planning laid the foundation for significant investments. “The federal government initiated a turning point in economic policy,” he said. The Chancellor justified the additional launch of the debt, determined with the majority of the old Bundestag. Nothing to do and not to include investments is not the best alternative.
“We coped a lot, we have achieved a lot, but much more has to be done,” he said. Black and Reds want to “convey courage and confidence” to all people in Germany, which would be advisable to work in this country and live in peace and freedom. “We want Germany to remain open to liberal, the country of freedom, and, above all, we want Germany to remain a tolerable country.”
You do not invest, you can play gambling, you use every trick so as not to send money to investments.
Katarina yeast, greens
Katarina Drozh, the co -author group “Green”, criticized the budget plans of the government. She accused Mercke that rich people won much more from planned taxes. Finance Minister Lars Klingbeal accused her of conducting a financial policy such as Christian Lindner, and doubted the announced investments: “You do not invest, you spend, you use every trick so as not to send money to investments.” Dröge also called climatic protection in the new budget plans “climate -political declaration of bankruptcy”.
SPD Secretary General Meresh entered these charges. “I also expect respect for the cost of a compromise from the opposition.” Here, a small critic of the coalition partner sounded as if the union could no longer be achieved with the trade union. “What we invest is a living climate protection,” he said.
The new government can be as good as in the previous one, said that the left leader of the co-founding group Heidi Rechinnek: “Due to the fact that he would have tapped on the shoulder.” Until now, the Black and Red Government has given nothing more than “chaos and broken promises.” She described her draft budget as a “budget of hopelessness”. It is reduced from projects that will really help people.
“You spread from the bottom up, we want to spread it from top to bottom,” said the Reichnink. “They are not even trying to reduce the gap between the rich and the poor, they torn them still further.” In the direction of the leader of the SPD parliamentary group, the left -winged said: “Yes, Matias, compromises are important, but SPD is under this coalition.”
Four -day budget debates began on Tuesday with a budget presentation for 2025 by the Minister of Finance of Klingbeal. Significant higher investments are planned, which should be funded primarily on big debts.
The federal government plans to cost 503 billion euros this year – 6.1 percent more than in the previous year. 81.8 billion euros should be considered mainly a budget for loans, more than twice as much as 2024. In addition, in special pots filled with debts, there are more than 60 billion euros. By 2029, the government plans to accept almost 850 billion euros for the debt in the main budget and in special pots.
Chancellors’ consultations are traditionally considered the main point of budget consultations. In total, four hours are planned for debate. After the common debate, Merz for the first time asked the deputies in a government survey. 70 minutes were planned for this. After that, the parliament discusses the budget of the Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Protection and Development.
