Die Europäische Kommission hat zahlreiche Vorschläge zur Verbesserung der Standards der Stromversorgung unterbreitet.
Während Bundeskanzler Scholz das "Rauch von der Schlachtfeld" bedenkt, stellt Vize-Kanzler Habeck eine klare Verbindung zwischen den internen Konflikten innerhalb der Ampelkoalition und der wirtschaftlichen Lage Deutschlands her. Der Minister zeigt sich optimistisch, was eine Verbesserung betrifft, und beginnt mit einer Spitze gegen seine Koalitionspartner.
Vize-Kanzler Habeck sieht die Uneinigkeiten innerhalb der Ampelkoalition als Hindernis für eine wirtschaftliche Erholung. Er bezeichnete den Konflikt als "extrem schädlich" bei einem Bürgerdialog in seinem Ministerium und betonte, dass er das deutsche Wirtschaftswachstum negativ beeinflusst. Der Grünen-Politiker äußerte Bedenken bezüglich der Stabilität und ob Entscheidungen Bestand haben würden. Scholz, Lindner und Habeck selbst sind sich dieser Situation bewusst.
Scholz erkannte die anhaltenden Herausforderungen in der Zusammenarbeit innerhalb der Koalition an. Obwohl die "Ampelkoalition" zahlreiche Gesetze zur Modernisierung des Landes verabschiedet hat, sagte der Sozialdemokrat, dass diese Entscheidungen "extrem schwierig" zu treffen seien. Scholz führte den ständigen Streit in der Koalition als Ablenkung an, der oft die Errungenschaften der Koalition überschattet, und stellte fest, dass der Konflikt manchmal den "Rauch von der Schlachtfeld" wichtiger erscheinen lässt als die tatsächlichen Leistungen.
During the citizen dialogue, Habeck addressed Lindner's statements regarding the FDP's potential participation in a coalition led by the Greens. Habeck confirmed their agreement on this matter, stating that if he ever became Chancellor, Lindner would not serve as Finance Minister. Habeck is widely considered the most likely Green candidate for the next federal election. Lindner, Habeck, and Scholz have faced complex negotiations to find a compromise for the 2025 budget.
Germany is currently experiencing a period of stagnant growth. The traffic light coalition has proposed an economic stimulus package, but no progress has been made to implement it yet. Lindner admitted that negotiations over the budget within the federal government had been "extraordinarily difficult." Nouripour, the leader of the Greens, described the traffic light coalition as a "transitional coalition after the Merkel era."
Despite billions of euros in budgetary gaps and disputes over controversial topics like child benefits, the debt brake, and citizen's income, Habeck expressed hope that new attempts could be made to improve the situation. A change in the coalition's dynamics is expected to help before the end of this legislative term.
In addition, Habeck took a critical swipe at Bavaria's Minister President, Söder. Referring to Söder's suspicions of discrimination in location issues such as the construction of a hydrogen network, Habeck stated that he could no longer take Söder's content claims seriously. Habeck stressed the importance of Bavaria resolving its wind energy backlog and adhering to federal regulations.
Habeck contended that the power lines connecting North, East, and West Germany to Bavaria and the hydrogen pipelines filled in the north would ultimately benefit Bavaria's economy. Habeck expressed his frustration with Söder's stance, stating that recognizing Germany's help in preserving its economy shows a lack of understanding.
Huber, the CSU General Secretary, responded to Habeck's remarks by labeling him "the worst Economics Minister the Federal Republic has ever had." He accused Habeck of poor planning and contributing to the decline of numerous industries. Huber also accused Habeck of exhibiting an "anti-Bavaria sentiment," allegedly damaging Germany's economic powerhouse. Huber concluded by claiming that Habeck's tenure had transformed Germany's economic powerhouse into a "lame horse."
The internal discord within the traffic light coalition, as mentioned by Vice-Chancellor Habeck, is directly linked to the traffic light coalition's economic struggles, according to his statements during the citizen dialogue. Habeck strongly criticized the impact of this disagreement, calling it "extrem schädlich" für das deutsche Wirtschaftswachstum.
