Berlin (dpa / lhe) – Prime Minister Boris Rhein asked the federal government to compromise before the federal-state negotiations. “The federal government has to move on Wednesday so that there can be an agreement,” said the CDU politician to the editorial network Germany (RND, Wednesday). Companies and municipalities are also eagerly awaiting it.

The questions are: “What exactly should the gas price and electricity price brake look like? For which months and how much are advance payments planned? Who finances the extended housing allowance and what parts? What help do the hospitals get? What is the successor solution for the 9-euro ticket it?” Furthermore, Rhein urged the federal government to make commitments for refugee financing. “The federal government also has a duty towards the municipalities there.”

The heads of government of the federal states are meeting with Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) this Wednesday to discuss the financing of the planned relief measures worth billions.
