Feels like the problem isn't the committee per se, more the committee's incompetence and inability to effectively compromise.
Coalition politics only works if the members recognise the need for compromise and are competent enough to achieve it. I'd honestly expected German politicians to be better at this tbh.
- generic92034 2y agoIn some topics the coalition parties are diametrically opposed to each other. In addition, the smallest party (FDP) is fighting for pure survival (5% barrier). This means, the chances for good compromises are just especially low in this constellation. Also, the coalition treaty was agreed upon before the Ukraine war happened. That makes it useless in some ways, removing any common ground.
