CDU General Secretary Mario Czaja sees no competition for party leader Friedrich Merz in the electoral successes of Daniel Günther in Schleswig-Holstein and Hendrik Wüst in North Rhine-Westphalia.
"He is the strong man of the Union," said Czaja on Sunday evening in the "Berliner Runde" on ZDF.
He added: The CDU is happy that it has strong prime ministers "and thus a wide range of personalities who can take responsibility".
At the same time, Czaja attributed the “strong joint performance” of the CDU to the leadership of Merz.
He brought the CDU team together, helped a lot in the election campaign, united the Union and brought the wings together.
