Berlin / Bremen (dpa / lni) - Bremen's Mayor Andreas Bovenschulte (SPD) does not refer the criticism of Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU) to the Prime Minister's Corona management to his state.

«We are implementing the corona measures that have been agreed.

Also the emergency brake, ”Bovenschulte told the newspaper“ Die Welt ”in Berlin on Monday.

"In this respect, I do not feel addressed by the Chancellor's criticism."

The city of Bremen withdrew the easing on Monday, as provided for in the federal-state resolution from the beginning of March.

“The federal government should not point the finger at others,” said Bovenschulte about Merkel's appearance on the ARD program “Anne Will” the night before.

“Conversely, the countries could also point out that the vaccine order did not work out.

But that doesn't help us, we have to look ahead. "

The Social Democrat expressed skepticism about Merkel's recommendation of exit restrictions in risk areas.

"Part of the truth is that exit restrictions have only a very limited effect," said Bovenschulte.

I am therefore in favor of us first exhausting all milder means in the fight against the pandemic. "

In the city of Bremerhaven, which is currently worse affected than Bremen, the magistrate wants to restrict the nightly exit from Tuesday evening.
