Söder advocates blessings for homosexual couples - and makes “pledges of protection”

CSU boss Markus Söder advocates a blessing for homosexual and transsexual couples.

The Bavarian Prime Minister also made a "promise of protection".

Munich - The union around Chancellor candidate Armin Laschet * (CDU) is fighting for every vote in the country in the last days before the federal election * (September 26th).

In the latest surveys, the gap between the SPD and candidate Scholz was reduced somewhat *, but there are still signs of a changing of the guard in Germany.

To this day, experts see a mistake in not having chosen CSU boss Söder as the Union's candidate for chancellor.

In popularity surveys, Söder was always able to show good values.

Now the Prime Minister has spoken about homosexual and transsexual couples - and even made a "protection promise".
