Christian Lindner: "We should hit the Putin-close elite more than before"

WELT AM SONNTAG:

Mr. Lindner, the Federal Chancellor and the Prime Minister have been talking for weeks about easing the incidence from an incidence value of 50. Now it is said that the next opening step in trade and culture should only “when there is a stable seven-day incidence of at most 35 new infections per 100,000 Residents ”.

Yes, what now?

Christian Lindner:

The impression should not be created that the government is justifying the same policy with changing arguments.

We have regional incidences of below 50, even below 35. However, the lockdown is being extended across the board.

The fixation on these numbers does not do justice to the differentiated pandemic events.

Opening steps are possible regionally and with intelligent protection concepts.

People expect this perspective.

WELT AM SONNTAG:

Both numbers are in the law.

Nevertheless, your Vice-President Wolfgang Kubicki interprets the lower threshold as a violation of the law.

They also?
