The designated North Rhine-Westphalian Prime Minister Hendrik Wüst (CDU) has criticized the way the Union deals with CDU leader Armin Laschet.
The 46-year-old politician said on Friday in Düsseldorf, with a view to the treatment of Laschet in his own ranks after the defeat in the federal election, that good politics not only live from the right decisions, but also from the right way of dealing with one another.

Christian Democratic Union must also show itself in dealing.
"There is certainly room for improvement".
