Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier expects the new federal government to present a better image than the coalition with traffic lights did recently. The style among each other must be different, Steinmeier told MDR aktuell. The Federal President warned "not to stage every dispute in public".
The focus must be on solving problems and finding compromises. People expect answers on the subject of energy prices, for example. They need impetus that leads to an improvement in living and economic conditions.
Steinmeier was optimistic that lost trust in democratic institutions could be regained. "My plea is: let's invest even more time and more presence to get back into conversation with people where the conversation has been lost."
