Düsseldorf (dpa / lnw) - North Rhine-Westphalia Interior Minister Herbert Reul (CDU) is pushing for a quick decision and amicable solution in the leadership issue of the state CDUt.
«My hope was and is that there will be an agreement on the succession.
Because candidacy and opposing candidacy and an associated dispute would not be very intelligent, ”he told the“ Rheinische Post ”(Friday).
He also did not believe in further postponing the decision, stressed Reul.
«(We) are unfortunately in a personnel debate.
We won't stop them by postponing the party congress again until autumn, ”he told the newspaper.
Reul is considered a promising candidate to succeed Armin Laschet as the new NRW CDU boss - as is NRW Transport Minister Hendrik Wüst.
Wüst can rely on the support of the Junge Union, which had indicated its support.
In the "Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger" (Friday), the state building minister Ina Scharrenbach spoke out in favor of Reul.
Scharrenbach had previously actually been considered a potential candidate for the party chairmanship.

Reul criticized the discussion: “The debate that is taking place now shouldn't have been because it doesn't help us any further as a party.
It is also important for the success of our top candidate Armin Laschet that the store is tidy, ”he said in the interview.
