In an interview with the news magazine "Politico", Brandenburg's Minister-President Dietmar Woidke (SPD) has expressed his support for Ilse Aigner (CSU) as a potential candidate for the position of Federal President. Woidke stated, "Ilse Aigner brings everything that makes a good Federal President." He also acknowledged that she is "the perfect candidate," given her extensive knowledge of German politics and her ability to connect with people.
The SPD is putting pressure on Federal Economic Minister Katherina Reiche (CDU) to present a concrete proposal for a fuel price cap during the Christmas holiday season. Armand Zorn, the faction vice president, emphasized that they will not accept any law that postpones the cap until January and then cancels it by the end of March, citing the current crisis and rising prices due to the Iran conflict.
CDU Interior Minister Jan Redmann in Brandenburg also endorsed Aigner's candidacy, praising her experience and ability to bring people together from across the political spectrum. Redmann believes that Aigner can unite people and is crucial for the nation's needs.
