Bundestag President Wolfgang Schäuble (CDU) has defended the planned nocturnal curfews in regions with high corona numbers as being proportionate.
"A look abroad shows that all countries that have regained control of high numbers of infections have resorted to exit restrictions at times," Schäuble told the Berlin "Tagesspiegel" (Wednesday).
This Wednesday, the Bundestag wants to pass nationwide uniform rules to combat the corona pandemic. Among other things, exit restrictions from 10:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. are planned, as can be seen from the draft amendment to the Infection Protection Act. As a result, jogging and walking are allowed until midnight, provided you are alone. The federal emergency brake should be pulled if more than 100 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants occur in a district or a city within seven days.
Schäuble rejected criticism of the federal government's rights of enforcement.
“I think that comparisons with Weimar, which individuals employ, are completely wrong,” said the CDU politician.
The law is limited in time.
The Federal Government will also need the approval of the Bundestag and Bundesrat for further measures in the future.
There could be no question of self-empowerment.
The law is required in the current situation, said Schäuble.
