Chancellor candidate Scholz, Secretary General Klingbeil and SPD leader Esken advertise the coalition agreement with the Greens and the FDP among young party leaders.

There is a lot of praise and a little bit of criticism here and there.

Frankfurt - Top SPD politicians have campaigned for the coalition agreement with the Greens and FDP and, if necessary, announced further drastic measures in the corona pandemic. Chancellor candidate Olaf Scholz promised consistent action in the dramatically worsening corona pandemic. Everything will be done that has to be done, said Scholz on Saturday in Frankfurt at the Federal Jusos Congress and spoke of "new dramatic challenges". There is nothing that is not taken into account. The ambitious goal is that now all those concerned get a booster vaccination for a booster. He has already announced that a crisis team will be set up. There is currently close cooperation between the future and current government.

SPD General Secretary Lars Klingbeil and party leader Saskia Esken had previously announced further measures to combat pandemic if necessary on Friday.

Klingbeil was confident that the currently possible measures to combat the pandemic will take effect, but also promised: "If we see that it is not working, then politicians have to take action." There should be no false pride.

Esken mentioned compulsory vaccinations in hospitals and nursing homes as further measures.

"There is a good chance that even stricter contact restrictions will be necessary," she said.

If the vaccination rate can only be increased with a general compulsory vaccination, then one must also consider that, even if it is difficult.

Northern SPD: Esken and Klingbeil a strong dual leadership

The SPD in Schleswig-Holstein supports the candidacy of Saskia Esken and Lars Klingbeil for the chairmanship of the federal party.

The state chairman Serpil Midyatli spoke on Monday of a strong double leadership.

The party leadership has worked together in a very trusting and team-oriented manner over the past two years.

"This personal continuity is a good basis for ensuring that it stays that way," said Midyatli, who is also the deputy federal chairwoman of the SPD.

Sparkasse President warns against preferring fee-based advice

Banks and savings banks usually make a profit from the sale of financial products.

Critics assume that the industry should therefore often pass on customer needs.

Sparkasse President warns against preferring fee-based advice

With a view to the planned future cabinet, the likely future Chancellor Scholz said he saw the chance of a longer traffic light government beyond this legislative period.

“We have a situation in which we can really dare to make a departure for Germany.” That has something to do with the very special constellation of the three parties that are now forming the future government.

"I think I can carry that far beyond what we currently have in mind."

A “new social majority” could be represented, in which a “progressive coalition” would gather - which was different, but could help Germany move forward “properly”.

“This is a big change,” said Scholz.

Some of the delegates of the Juso Federal Congress criticized the fact that the word redistribution did not appear in the coalition agreement, that the wording was vague, that measures in refugee or housing policy fell short.

The SPD, Greens and FDP presented a coalition agreement on Wednesday.

If members and delegates have agreed, Scholz can be elected Chancellor by the Bundestag - the date should be in the week from December 6th.

Scholz emphasized the chance for a "departure" by the new federal government. He referred to the projects in the coalition agreement, especially in climate protection, housing and social policy.

At the same time, Scholz warned in view of Jusos's critical voices about the new finance minister-designate Christian Lindner (FDP) that one should now deal more with the CDU than with those with whom the SPD wants to venture out together.

"It is not important who has which department," said Scholz.

“It's about an overall performance that the government has to bring about.

And of course the political goals that we agreed with each other in the coalition agreement and the things that we want to achieve together must be such that they succeed because everyone is doing it right - Annalena, Robert, Christian and all the others , with whom we are now forming the joint government. ”This refers to FDP leader Christian Lindner and the two Green leaders Annalena Baerbock and Robert Habeck.
