Berlin (dpa-AfX)-Union Chancellor candidate Friedrich Merz described the TV duel with Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) as a “lesson for democracy”. “I think that we have had an important and necessary discussion,” said Merz on the live streaming portal Twitch after the TV duel in ARD and ZDF. “There have been clear differences.”
Scholz said on the platform: “It is democracy that you exchanged your different attitudes and I think I have been able to score very good points.” He was also satisfied that the most important questions that are discussed in Germany also occurred.
Merz said: “Yes, we have had a tough debate, but hard debates are also part of democracy. We have to talk to each other properly after February 23 and bring about the solution to the problems in Germany. And if we can do it, I am very satisfied. “/Hoe/DP/ZB
