Munich (dpa / lby) - Bavaria's Landtag President Ilse Aigner understands the resistance in her party against a women's quota.
“I understand that because, to be honest, I wasn't any different from when I was young.
But you just learn with time, "said the CSU politician on Monday on the occasion of International Women's Day, the Bavarian radio.
Mere appeals and speeches did not get you anywhere for a long time.
For a greater participation of women in politics it would need "a suction from above, which then draws the women in."
The CSU has the greatest pent-up demand in local politics.
Her party will also have to nominate women more frequently for direct mandates.
«We just have too few, basically.
And that's why we have to work on it. "
