The CDU Economic Council is calling for an immediate entry into the opening after the lockdown.

The association has drawn up a three-stage plan for this, which WELT has at hand.

"With the slowdown in the chains of infection and the accelerated increase in the number of recovered citizens, the federal and state governments now have the chance to enter the exit from the lockdown phase," said the Secretary General of the Economic Council, Wolfgang Steiger, WELT.

"After months of enormous stress, consistent and reliable measures are now needed to reopen the economy and offer people planning security."
