CSU boss Dobrindt warns: traffic light coalition could be at the end!

Berlin - In the German political landscape, the possibility of an early Bundestag election ensures lively discussions. Alexander Dobrindt, the chairman of the CSU national group in the Bundestag, recently stated that the CSU was well prepared for such a step. "We are prepared," said Dobrindt in an interview with the "Augsburger Allgemeine". He sees March 2, 2025 as a potential election day that could coincide with the choice of citizens in Hamburg.

These considerations come at a time when the Bundestag election is currently planned for September 28, 2025. The coalition under Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) faces increasing pressure. The disappointing performance of the traffic light parties in the last elections questioned the stability of the red-green-yellow coalition and overthrew them into a crisis.

Lindner comments on the stability of the government

FDP boss Christian Lindner has fueled speculation about an early end of the coalition. In a podcast of the news portal "Table.Briefing", Lindner emphasized the importance of stability for Germany and at the same time noticed that a government had to ask the question of whether it is sufficient for the requirements of time. "Stability for Germany is of an outstanding importance. But at some point a government can also be part of the problem," says Lindner.

His statements relate to the uncertainties that arise from the coalition when the FDP's possible retreat. Already after the Brandenburg election on September 23, he had emphasized the courage to work both in critical political constellations and to draw the necessary consequences if persistent problems remain.

Dobrindt's concerns about the Greens

Another central point in Dobrindt's statements is his position compared to a possible coalition between the Union and the Greens. He decidedly rejects such a connection and sees no place for a change of policy with the Greens. "In my opinion, a change of policy is not possible with the Greens," said Dobrindt. Regardless of whether some politicians from the Green Party are willing to rethink their position - the majority of the party is not capable or willing.

Surprisingly, Dobrindt suggests a coalition with the SPD. "Survey figures show that the population according to the traffic light chaos is the desire for a coalition with a strong management party and a smaller partner as a supplement," emphasized Dobrindt. He sees the possibility of this partnership as realistic, especially if the SPD should lose voices in future elections. "I hope that the more sensible half will be left," he said.

These statements and uncertainty in the leading coalition raise questions about the future political orientation of Germany. Dobrindts and Lindner's statements indicate an increasingly fragile political state that attracts the attention of the electorate and the media. Further developments in this matter remain to be seen while the parties rethink their strategies.

For a deeper insight into the recent political events and to explain the current situation, further details and analyzes are necessary. As reported, the political arena remains in motion the time until the next elections is still shaped by uncertainties.
