Munich (dpa / lby) - After the end of the week-long power struggle in the Union for the candidacy for chancellor, the state parliament opposition attacked Prime Minister and CSU leader Markus Söder sharply.

The Greens, SPD, FDP and AfD demanded on Tuesday that the head of government should now take care of the important problems again, especially Corona.

"The dispute in the CDU and CSU paralyzed the country long enough in the middle of the third wave of the pandemic," said Green parliamentary group leader Ludwig Hartmann.

"I am still stunned by the state of the Union, which was once proud of its organizational and managerial power."

Söder has escalated the situation and contributed a lot to "that people miss values ​​such as decency, reliability and humility in politics".

"This absurd spectacle has finally come to an end."

SPD parliamentary group leader Horst Arnold criticized: "Söder was on an unprecedented ego trip that will not only damage the CDU and CSU in the long term."

Now Söder has to do his homework in Bavaria.

"In what is probably the most difficult part of the pandemic, the citizens have the right to the prime minister's full commitment."

FDP parliamentary group leader Martin Hagen wrote on Twitter that Söder had gambled away and was leaving scorched earth. “He drove the Union to the brink of abyss five months before the general election and ended up with nothing. The methods with which the Franken-Macchiavelli always prevailed in the CSU failed in Berlin. " Hagen wrote: “Now our MP can concentrate on Bavaria and the pandemic again. There's enough to do. "

AfD parliamentary group leader Katrin Ebner-Steiner said that Söder had occupied the country with his "ego trip" long enough, "instead of devoting himself to the huge problems that he contributed to."

The AfD has long been calling for an end to the anti-corona measures: There is a "state of emergency" that threatens to become permanent due to the planned tightening of the Infection Protection Act.
