► Chancellor and CDU leader Angela Merkel met on September 12 with about 50 women from the Bundestag faction of the SPD. This reports the "mirror" in its current issue.
► The idea for the women's summit should come from a little-known SPD politician and be created in March.
► According to the report, the meeting was kept secret for reasons of external concern.
Why the message from the women's summit is important:
The Grand Coalition has been on the verge of this legislature several times.the Reason were differences between the parties in the refugee policy (before the summer break) and in dealing with constitutional protection president Hans -Georg Maaßen (after the summer break).
For the SPD is even more than for the CDU their credibility at stake.
In view of the Maaßen dispute, which was negotiated at the same time as the planned meeting in the Interior Committee and after deliberations in the Group Executive Committee, the representative of SPD leader Andrea Nahles, Katja Mast said the meeting, according to "mirror" from the day before. When Merkel asked for the reason, the SPD women should have retaken their bosses and arranged the meeting again.
The women had objectively exchanged but agreed not to let anything leak outside.
This shows that the coalition still has a basis for cooperation. But the secrecy shows how much the issues are superimposed by partisan considerations.
What you still need to know:
According to "mirror" Nahles is said to have asked to take any photos at the meeting. Too big was apparently the concern, it could be public.
But supposedly a picture was created - at the request of Merkel. It has not become public. At least not yet.
