Olaf Scholz (63) has a problem with women. The SPD candidate for chancellor (“I am a feminist”) promises: There are just as many women as men in my government.
Unfortunately, there is a surplus of men among the comrades with influence and important functions. The result: the SPD team, which is exploring a coalition, has four men, but only two women. Unthinkable with the Greens. They have strictly quoted their 10 negotiating group.
The question of women also plays an important role in the election of the new President of the Bundestag at the end of October. The post (according to the minutes the most important after the Federal President) belongs to the SPD as the largest parliamentary group.
But since Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier (65) and probably Chancellor Olaf Scholz are two men at the head of the state, a third guy as President of Parliament would be a difficult signal.
Therefore, Scholz and the SPD are currently looking for a suitable MP. In conversation: Aydan Özoguz (54). She would be the first Muslim woman on the post.
The fact that men in Scholz’s traffic light government have more than 50 percent of power could also be ensured by the FDP and the Greens by filling the positions of Vice Chancellor.
Christian Lindner (42) is the winner of the Liberals. With the Greens, Robert Habeck (52) made his claim clear.
That would be three men and zero women at the top of the government.
