Update 10:40 pm: How and when does Germany come out of the corona lockdown ? Once again, Anne Wills Polit-Talk had to drill thick boards on Sunday evening. And discord was quickly apparent - despite the calm tone in the discussion.
Bavaria's Prime Minister Markus Söder (CSU) opened the evening with indirect criticism of the Robert Koch Institute . It would be important "that we get a reliable number from the Robert Koch Institute when it would be dangerous," said the father of the country with regard to the debate about the limits of responsible relaxation.
So far there have always been various numbers that are considered relevant. Söder would have liked it differently, as he made it clear - by the way, only present at the talk via video - that one could then take further steps “not only with a political majority, but with a clear conscience”.
Corona Talk at Anne Will: Söder makes demands on the RKI - and receives criticism
Söder quickly got contradictions from the scientist in the group. "It is not easy for us in science", sociologist Jutta Allmendinger made clear - it was also "not the task of science to serve there". She also disliked the general speech about focus on health. "This is a strange operationalization for me," she explained - it was necessary to "price in" the social and mental health of the citizens.
Greens boss Robert Habeck also criticized the federal states' approach to easing the situation . He also initially criticized Soder's statement at the beginning: "Scientific knowledge will never release politics from making decisions," he emphasized - and then went on to scold the Prime Minister and Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU) .
Corona virus: Debate on "Anne Will" - Habeck criticizes Merkel, Söder sees the world admiring Germany
"My impression is that the federal states are simply doing what they want," said the Green. "Even before the orchestra begins, everyone starts to get confused." Probably Habeck's question at Merkel's address: "Who conducts?" Söder also admitted that alienation was quick in Saxony-Anhalt . "We were very surprised," he admitted.
Vice Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) made every effort to put the complaints about the lockdown into perspective. Germany had "forbidden nobody to go out," and the industry was not "closed" either. Söder had previously emphasized that " half the world" looks "admiringly" at Germany - only the current violent debate is surprising. One should not now "badly talk about all successes", Söder later asked again.
Allmendinger also saw failures. The stresses in the crisis were not distributed fairly, she emphasized. Last but not least, women in the country were among the losers - for example in view of the increased burden on home workers. "You could see who has no lobby - I would say single parents, children and women," agreed Habeck. With the sociologist's nod in agreement.
Corona topic with Anne Will in the first: Habeck does not rule out party exclusion for Palmer
The topic was also the advances of the controversial Green Mayor Boris Palmer. Habeck indicated that he now has to prepare for difficult times in the party. "After he added more today, I have to say that my patience is really exhausted," said the party leader. He sees himself as the "addressee" of an open letter from more than 100 Greens members who are demanding that Palmer be excluded from the party, Habeck emphasized, adding: "We will deal with such questions."
Federal Minister of the Interior Horst Seehofer (CSU) meanwhile announced its willingness to further relax on Sunday evening - and has also expressed a fresh start for the Bundesliga. Armin Laschet, an advocate of further easing in the corona lockdown, replied in an interview with Munich's Merkur * that he warned of "immense damage".
