Norbert Röttgen does not want to form a coalition with the FDP.

But with such refusals, he frivolously rejects coalition options that are based on democratic soil.

A comment.

Munich -

Norbert Röttgen

is in the candidate trio for the chairmanship of the

CDU

the most prominent supporter of a black-green coalition in the federal government.

So far, so well known.

The fact that the Rhinelander breaks off every bridge to the Liberals a few days before the Christian Democrats showdown is outrageous - both strategically and in terms of content.

His reasoning: The

FDP

had historically failed by breaking off the Jamaica talks in 2016, which is why the liberals are “insecure cantonists,” says Röttgen.

Oops, someone has strict standards when dealing with mistakes - with others.

Röttgen takes

care of his own sins

on the other hand, Christian forgiveness.

How was that again in 2012?

The then Federal Environment Minister wanted to become Prime Minister in

North Rhine-Westphalia

, but when he successfully botched the election, he was too smart to swap his soft Berlin ministerial chair for the tough opposition bank in Düsseldorf.

Irresponsible, judged the critics at the time and did not cry after

him

when

Chancellor Merkel

finally shot him.

Norbert Röttgen before the CDU party convention: He rejects the FDP

Armin Laschet

and

Friedrich Merz

can only be Röttgen's green revelation.

Anyone who

wants to

unilaterally

link

the fate of the

CDU

to a sole alliance with the

Greens

is not only

forgotten about history in

view of the many successful black-yellow coalitions.

In the struggle for free answers to questions about the future, he also recklessly rejects options after the

federal election

.
