The Prime Minister of Saxony, Michael Kretschmer (CDU), misses the will for far-reaching reforms in Germany. The population is finally expecting solutions from politicians, he told the German Press Agency in Dresden. "You have to face up to this reality and then take bold action. That is not happening enough in Berlin." What is possible can be seen in the topic of migration. The number of illegal entries has halved within six months.
More speed instead of a snail's pace in Germany
"As minister presidents, we passed unanimous resolutions on migration for years. They were ignored by the previous federal government. We were always told that this was not possible under European law and that this was not possible under constitutional law. Now it is possible." This is how it should also work in other areas. Through good negotiation, it was possible to put together a 200-point programme to modernize the state. We need a new speed for Germany and not a snail's pace.
