In the political career of the German Vice Chancellor, the evening of May 16, 2023 will forever mark a deep turning point. Those were the hours in which he made it clear to the architect of his most important project, climate change, that they had to part ways. Patrick Graichen, his state secretary, only told him the full truth about his own conflicts of interest when there was no other choice, at least according to the minister.
Habeck’s political future now depends more than ever on Graichen’s last project, the heating law. The critics of the project, loud in the FDP, only a little quieter in the SPD, now sense the dawn. They see an opportunity to soften the project or even postpone it, some of the once harshest critics of the State Secretary are already talking up Graichen to the greatest expert of all time, without whom a quick legislative decision would not be possible under any circumstances – although the ball has been good since the cabinet decision four weeks is actually no longer in the ministry, but with the parliamentary groups.
