Berlin (dpa-AfX)-Green parliamentary group leader Britta Haßelmann is confident that her parliamentary group will help the Union and SPD union. There was already a lot of encouragement in the faction on Friday, said Haßelmann in the ZDF “Morgenmagazin”. “And then we will vote on it today,” she added.

Union, SPD and Greens want the Basic Law to be changed in several places in order to be able to invest more money for security, infrastructure and climate protection. In the Bundestag and the Federal Council, two -thirds majorities are necessary. The old Bundestag is scheduled to decide on Tuesday, and the country chamber will follow on Friday. In the new parliament, the Union, the SPD and the Greens are no longer able to state such a majority.

The Greens also help the future government of the Union and SPD. Haßelmann assured: “You can be sure. I am not concerned with Markus Söder or Friedrich Merz. I’m about the country and the question, what do citizens need, what do the cities and municipalities need.”/Shy/dp/jha
