Innsbruck (AP) - Tyrol's head of state Günther Platter is dissatisfied with Bavaria's head of government Markus Söder (CSU).

"The Bavarian Prime Minister Markus Söder is currently on an ego trip," said the conservative ÖVP governor of the "Tiroler Tageszeitung" (Saturday).

«I don't use such a formulation otherwise.

In this case, however, I do it quite deliberately because Söders Tirol-Bashing, the constant and disparaging mention of Ischgl, is not okay.

I'm very irritated, that's not how you behave with friends. "

Söder had repeatedly used the Tyrolean ski resort Ischgl, which became a central Corona hotspot for numerous tourists in the spring, for comparisons.

Most recently, the question of opening up the ski areas among the neighbors had also become a crisis.

The tense relationship between his Austrian state and neighbor Bavaria is not only due to the dispute over transit traffic, said Platter.

"Salzburg, Upper Austria and Vorarlberg also have problems with Bavaria, and they have no transit problems."

But the situation will improve again, he is not worried, said Platter.
