Despite everything, the goal remains the continuation of the black-yellow coalition in berlin. The FDP also has "huge electoral potential" in bavaria. By sunday, the CSU wants to attack the greens in particular.

In the state elections on sunday, the CSU won an absolute majority of seats with 47.7 percent of the vote, while the FDP was thrown out of the state parliament with 3.3 percent. The SPD won 20.6 percent, the greens 8.6 percent, the free voters 9.0 percent. After five years in coalition with the FDP, the CSU can now govern alone again.

Hubert aiwanger, state and national chairman of the free democratic party and parliamentary party leader in the bavarian state parliament, is well informed when he stops by for an editorial interview with the bayerische rundschau in the run-up to a visit to the bildungswerk fur kommunalpolitik (education center for local politics) in thurnau. And he knows the dog bone not only, but he also has a decided opinion on the newly created state parliamentary constituency wunsiedel/kulmbach. "A gross political error", he says. One that in the future could lead to the fact that the rural regions had even less weight in the political debate.

"I can’t believe that some people don’t know about the stasi."In general, today’s europe lacks a confrontation with the eastern europe of the cold war. "In europe right now, people are pretending that there is only a memory of a west german history, but not also an east european one."

The reading from his new book was gauck’s first public appearance since he was nominated as a candidate for the office of head of state. Early next week, the former head of the stasi files authority, who himself does not belong to any party, will meet in berlin with the leaders of the cdu, fdp, spd and grun. A meeting with the left was also under discussion. This saturday he plans to attend a meeting of the CDU in north rhine-westphalia.

“What we are doing here is not a child”s play, it is about the question that the federal republic of germany needs a reliable government,” said party leader cem ozdemir. “Maybe the chancellor will surprise us, maybe mr. Seehofer will surprise us with something.”

The top candidate in the bundestag election campaign, jurgen trittin, said the citizens had a right to know "why something works or why something doesn"t work. In the talks with the union on thursday, there had been no such rough assumption that schwarz-grun seemed probable. "The first round did not make me more optimistic about this."

"Grune and the SPD must answer the question of how they intend to implement a left-wing electoral program without the left-wing. That is simply impossible."

According to polls, a red-red-green coalition currently had a chance of winning a majority again. SPD candidate for chancellor peer steinbruck and party leader sigmar gabriel once again categorically rejected cooperation with the left-wing party over the weekend. Gabriel also ruled out toleration by the left: "you can't run germany with a minority cabinet," he said on sunday evening on ARD's "report from berlin.".

To the 30. On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the opening of the border between burggrub and neuhaus-schierschnitz, the ecumenical community in the lower hablach valley met for the first time at the border and peace chapel in burggrub to pray for the preservation of creation under the motto "friday prayers for future" to pray.

Until now, the district council and its committees have always met on mondays at 9 and 8 a.M., respectively.30 o’clock. The end of the district council sessions in particular is "incalculable," says baumgartner. These ended sometimes at 11 a.M., sometimes not until 2 or 3 p.M. "With the current meeting times, we are excluding many from the district council.", says baumgartner. It is necessary to adapt to changing conditions in society.

This is the only way to make local politics accessible to young people and "people who are in the middle of life", open. The evening meeting times also offered women the opportunity to better reconcile membership in the district council with their families.

On friday evening, the radical left refused to form a coalition government with the conservatives, the socialists and the small party of the democratic left (dimar). These three parties together also had a relatively comfortable majority in athens, with 168 of the 300 deputies voting for them. But dimar in particular wanted to bring the radical left on board at all costs.

After the no vote of the radical left alliance (syriza), the chances of forming a coalition government in athens are minimal. Monday will probably decide whether a pro-european government will be formed in athens or whether new elections will be necessary. State president karolos papoulias now has the floor. He must hold final talks with the heads of all parties under the constitution in order to persuade them to form a government after all if possible.
