Bundespräsident: Udo di Fabio als Steinmeier-Nachfolger? – Wer außer ihm im Rennen ist
Obwohl auf Steinmeier eigentlich eine Frau folgen sollte, kursiert bei der CDU bereits der zweite Männername. Wer von Ilse Aigner bis Karin Prien noch als Kandidat oder Kandidatin genannt wird.
Bundespräsident Udo di Fabio is reportedly being considered as the successor to outgoing Chancellor Frank-Walter Steinmeier, according to CDU sources. Di Fabio, a 72-year-old former constitutional judge, enjoys the trust and support of the CDU/CSU party. His nomination could serve as a counterbalance to the growing influence of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, according to "Table" magazine.
However, the SPD is not in favor of a man at the top of the government, stating that "A woman in the highest office is long overdue." The last five Presidents of the Federal Republic have all been men.
