Erfurt (dpa / th) - Thuringia's state government had aroused expectations of clearly defined opening steps with its step-by-step plan, now there is disappointment.

On Thursday, the economy and the opposition in Thuringia reacted with criticism to the federal-state resolutions, in which the step-by-step plans presented by Thuringia and two other federal states played no role.

Prime Minister Bodo Ramelow (left) did not even manage to talk about the concept, said CDU General Secretary Christian Herrgott in Erfurt.

“That says a lot about his status in this group.

Those who prefer to play Candy Crush instead of listening are obviously no longer taken seriously. "

Criticism also came from the FDP and AfD.

The liberals demanded a realistic opening perspective, the AfD spoke of a failure of Ramelow.

The managing director of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry (IHK) Erfurt, Cornelia Haase-Lerch, described the federal-state resolutions with an extension of the lockdown until March 7th as unsatisfactory.

«The Thuringian step-by-step plan presented has aroused expectations that suddenly one day later cannot be met.

It cannot be that stipulations on easing, although announced in advance, are always postponed until later », said the managing director of the largest IHK in Thuringia.

That costs trust.

The state guild master for hairdressers, Sybille Hain, also expressed a lack of understanding.

Haase-Lerch called for "the scope of the step-by-step plan to be exhausted so that the mood does not completely overturn and bankruptcies of orders of magnitude are avoided".

It is about an early opening of schools and kindergartens and a reliable perspective for the stationary retail trade, the hotel and catering trade.

Ramelow had stated after the meeting that the extension of the lockdown to March 7 and the other regulations would be implemented in Thuringia.

The state government's corona step-by-step plan with opening steps depending on the development of the infection process should be readjusted in some points.

This is necessary because now a value for the seven-day incidence of 35 and no longer 50 should be targeted.

"It is then the basis of the work of the state government," said Ramelow.

When it will become the basis for the country's Corona regulations, however, is open.
