Volker Wieland: "The government should demonstrate its ability to act in the budget dispute" (Phoenix-Runde)
"Whether you cut extensive subsidies or social spending - there is enough room," says Wieland. In Wieland's opinion, an emergency situation that allows the debt brake to be suspended in 2024 is not justified.
There is also a risk that the constitutionality of the budget could be challenged again. "It would be better to adopt the budget for 2024 quickly and show that an effective climate and social policy is also possible this way," said Wieland.
