Merkel wants speed in discussions with SPD

Angela Merkel wants to keep pace in the discussions between CDU / CSU and SPD about the formation of a large coalition.

'From now on we will concentrate on forming a stable government,' Merkel said after a meeting of the party summit in Berlin. According to her, that is the basis for working best with France and serving the European cause. 'The world is actually waiting for us to get started. '

Merkel closed a minority cabinet again. She once again acknowledged that there are certainly differences between the Christian and Social Democrats, such as health insurance, but also sees 'a whole series of agreements,' not least with regard to European politics.
