Söder taunts and Laschet tries to get his election campaign on the right track.

A NRW minister is slowly fed up.

But the CSU remains calm.

Düsseldorf / Munich - CSU boss Markus Söder does not hold back with his opinion.

It is well known.

After all, he sees himself as a “driver”, as he recently revealed in the ZDF “summer interview”.

Do not lose sight of the corona protection, participate in the climate issue and always keep an eye on the current polls on the federal election - that is important to Bavaria's Prime Minister.

Minister von Armin Laschet: "Remake of the theater 'Strauss versus Kohl' seems a little trying"

It gets on some people's nerves.

Teachings from Bavaria?

No thanks, says NRW Transport Minister Hendrik Wüst (CDU).

"The remake of the theater 'Strauss gegen Kohl', which we are currently being offered from Bavaria, seems a little trying," he said in an interview with the

Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger

.

When asked about CO2 neutrality, for which Söder had brought forward the target to 2040, he continued: “Times have changed since the 1970s, and in the present we don't need any instructions from Bavaria.

North Rhine-Westphalia doesn’t have to hide. ”There is still a lot to do in all federal states before becoming CO2 neutral.

Wüst himself is considered a promising successor candidate if Armin Laschet moves from NRW to Berlin in the near future.

"I strongly advocate that we clarify the succession both in the state chairmanship and in the office of the head of government in unity and unity and to compete in the state elections with a strong team next year," said Wüst in an interview.

The Union's election campaign continues to stumble - Laschet is struggling with a number of problems

But Söder is likely to be dissatisfied with the state of affairs: Laschet has recently had some setbacks. On the one hand, in surveys. But even the pictures of crisis management in the flood areas were colored negative in the end, despite his efforts. A flood victim who calls him a "failure" in front of the camera; Photos that show Laschet with his hands in his pockets next to piles of rubbish, while some of the companions hold an umbrella over him. The allegations that he also took over passages from others in his book without quoting, flare up again and again. According to a Forsa survey, Laschet would continue to lose in a Chancellor fight with Söder: If the CSU boss were the Union’s candidate for Chancellor in a hypothetical direct election, three times as many eligible voters would vote for him.

The CSU does not want to let any conflict boil up, at least on the surface.

"Armin Laschet is currently facing several difficult challenges such as coping with the consequences of the flood disaster," said CSU top candidate Alexander Dobrindt of the

Funke media group

.

"He has the full support of the CSU and we are working together to ensure that the Union not only becomes the strongest force, but that no government can be formed against us."

CSU top candidate Dobrindt sees “no cross shots” from Bavaria

But support and cross shots from Munich, how does that fit together? “I don't see any cross shots there. But it is our responsibility to point out that we need more dynamism and maximum mobilization for the Union parties, ”said Dobrindt. There is still room for improvement for the desired result of over 30 percent. In order to mobilize voters, it takes “the courage to emphasize the differences between the programs”.
