CSU boss Markus Söder traveled to Berlin on Sunday evening.
This is what RTL and Bayerischer Rundfunk report.
He had come from Nuremberg in a private jet.
At first nothing was to be learned about the further course of the evening and the state of affairs in the internal Union dispute with CDU leader Armin Laschet about the candidacy for chancellor.
The Berlin CDU had previously confirmed its support for Söder as candidate for Union chancellor. The members of the presidium and the district chairmen had confirmed the unanimous opinion of the presidium from last Monday, said state chief Kai Wegner on Sunday after the meeting of the presidium and the district chairmen. “Markus Söder also has broad support in the CDU Berlin base. With two abstentions, the members of the presidium and the district chairmen voted in favor of Markus Söder as the joint candidate for chancellor of the CDU and CSU, ”he emphasized.
"There is a great longing for Markus Söder," said Wegner on ARD.
CDU leader Armin Laschet is still a good party leader.
Wegner rejected a special meeting of the CDU federal executive committee in support of Laschet.
"That is nonsense." If the two party leaders do not agree, the CDU / CSU parliamentary group would have to decide on Tuesday.

Laschet and Söder originally announced that they would find a solution to their dispute over the candidacy for chancellor by the end of the week.
On Sunday evening, however, there were no indications of an agreement.
