[HIGHLIGHTS] Lindner accuses Union of refusing to do so

Lindner accuses Union of refusing to do so. Lindner said in the evening after a meeting of the mediation committee of the Bundestag and Bundesrat that the German economy urgently needs stimulus.

In the conciliation process, a growth package was adopted with a traffic light majority. However, the Union still wants the cuts in agricultural diesel subsidies to be reversed. It is now unclear whether the growth package will receive approval in the Federal Council on March 22nd. The CDU and CSU refused theGerman economy's call for a relief perspective and growth impulses.
