This past week....Markus Soder (Premier-President of Bavaria, head of the CSU Party, and had figured to be the CDU-CSU Chancellor candidate until last month's executive committee meeting of the party)...came out with an interview statement. N-TV came with the statement with the interview.
What Soder hints at, if the Greens win the September election....he wants the CDU-CSU to deny them as a coalition partner....to prevent the tax raises and regulations discussed.
So what are the options here on a coalition (with the CDU-CSU standing out)?
If the Linke Party only achieves six to seven percent, and the SPD likely to only get fifteen to sixteen percent...the ONLY option is a Green-SPD-FDP situation.
The FDP in this case? They will stand in the way of any significant tax situation or bans on in-country flights. In fact, you could discount probably around two-thirds of all Green Party 'promises' in this type of scenario.
Soder becoming a 'pain-in-the-ass' for the CDU Party? Yes, more or less.
It wouldn't even surprise me if the CDU engages in a coaltion chat with the Greens....to discover that the CSU folks won't participate and the lack of numbers for the CDU Party from the election makes this effort impossible to achieve.
