FRANKFURT (dpa-AFX) – “Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung” on the Germany Pact:
“Scholz’s offer seems like an admission that his government is overwhelmed by its own coalition agreement. The coalition itself would first have to make a pact in order to be able to vigorously tackle what it has set itself. That it doesn’t, or only selectively progressing is because the traffic light is divided. The list of projects that cry out for progress and speed is therefore getting longer and longer. The coalition talks itself out of it when they open the “standstill” that Scholz now openly admitted pushes the years of the grand coalition. If Scholz wanted to say with his call for help that this coalition is not able to do what needs to be done, no pact is necessary. For such cases, the script of democracy provides for a change of government.”/al/ DP/ngu
