CSU retreat in Banz monastery: Consequences of the Ukraine war is the dominant topic

The Ukraine war and the consequences for Germany are likely to dominate the debates at the exam.

From the CSU point of view, the debt brake should apply again from 2023, despite the current crises.

The CSU MPs are calling for the traffic light coalition to use money much more sparingly: "Comply with the debt brake from 2023, households without new debt again from 2025 and a debt ratio of less than 60 percent by 2030," says the position paper "Courage to decide". , which the national group intends to adopt.

According to Welt am Sonntag

, the CSU state group

also proposes funding for energy-saving devices.

If a new device consumes at least 30 percent less than the old one, there should be a "scrapping bonus for energy guzzlers".

"We finally need effective incentives to save energy instead of new Habeck announcements to do without," said CSU regional group leader Alexander Dobrindt of the newspaper.

Specifically, Dobrindt named a bonus of 200 euros when replacing a refrigerator or a washing machine.
