Thuringia's Prime Minister Bodo Ramelow (left) has reacted critically to the latest statements by Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Merkel essentially blamed the countries for the failure of a common corona policy on Sunday in the ARD program "Anne Will".

"I now react with a certain sharpness because I'm really tired of having to listen to what should have been done, but actually didn't do anything myself," he told the "editorial network Germany".

He himself has been calling for a step-by-step plan and uniform rules for all of Germany "for a long time".

“If the Chancellor also addresses that, that's fine with me.

I'm just irritated that she is now building it up as a threatening backdrop, ”said Ramelow.

There were several prime ministers who expressed their disappointment at the penultimate prime ministerial conference that there was again no step-by-step plan, but and “only a few dry key points” about incidences, said Ramelow: “That's why I'm a little annoyed about the key . "

"Call horse and rider"

Ramelow also complained that Saarland had received additional doses of vaccine, although the incidences were much higher in large parts of Thuringia.

Bavaria also “opened the hardware stores” shortly before the last Prime Minister's Conference.

The "Mrs. Chancellor" must therefore "name horse and rider".

The left-wing politician emphasized that he had no objection to a change in the Infection Protection Act brought into play by Merkel in order to make uniform rules binding.

But a new conference of prime ministers scheduled at short notice would bring nothing if it was not clear what the outcome would be.
