Berlin (dpa / sn) – After a joint meeting with federal government ministers, Saxony is pushing for a rapid relief in energy prices. “People in Germany need clarity quickly as to what relief there will be,” said Prime Minister Michael Kretschmer (CDU) on Tuesday in Berlin. You are now on the right path. There will also be support measures in Saxony. The sooner it is clear what concrete relief steps the federal government will take, the sooner Saxony can make decisions.
At the same time, Kretschmer spoke out in favor of not breaking the implementation of the proposals of an expert commission on the gas price brake over the knee. “As soon as possible, but please not faster. It’s just the way it is. A lot of time has passed. That’s unfortunate,” said Kretschmer. However, there are still points to be clarified. “What happened to us with the gas levy must not happen to us again.” Federal Economics Minister Robert Habeck (Greens) and Federal Transport Minister Volker Wissing (FDP) took part in the joint cabinet meeting.
