The Union's closed meeting will be a showcase for the two potential candidates for chancellor: Söder and Laschet.
The sister parties are growing impatient with the K question.
Berlin - The free choice of the Union's candidate for chancellor is getting closer.
The decision should be made between Easter and Pentecost.
Does CDU boss Armin Laschet * do it?
Or is it CSU boss Markus Söder?
The Union parliamentary group leader Ralph Brinkhaus (CDU) has already warned that the question should be resolved quickly.
Within the next two weeks.
The Greens have already set the date for the proclamation of their candidate for chancellorship: April 19th.
So the clock is ticking.
But recently there was bad air in the Union because of a rumor *.
On Sunday (April 11th, 2021) there will be a closed meeting of the Union parliamentary group in Berlin.
Brinkhaus has invited the two party leaders together with CSU regional group leader Alexander Dobrindt.
The exam should start at ten o'clock.
The event is framed in the demand for a quick solution to the K-question.
Support for Markus Söder is growing within the Union parliamentary group, and CDU MPs are now also speaking out in favor of him.
And a recent survey shows a high level of approval for a candidate for Chancellor Söder * within the population.
Union summit in Berlin: K question is becoming more pressing - Söder, Laschet and Merkel at the closed conference
The real theme of the Union's closed meeting is: "How do we shape the future".
Both Laschet and Söder should make a statement in front of the parliamentary group leadership.
Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU) will also take part in the deliberations.
Observers see the Union summit for the first time setting the course for resolving the K-question.
However, it is unlikely that an agreement could already be reached.
It is good practice to first discuss such major decisions with the top committees of both parties.
Brinkhaus and Dobrindt will speak to the press at the beginning of the exam at ten o'clock.
The final press conference will take place at 3 p.m.
According to
Agence France-Press,
Markus Söder and Armin Laschet will take part.
Whether the two Union politicians use their joint presence in Berlin for a confidential conversation about the K question has so far been unclear.
