The FDP parliamentary group vice-president compares Bavaria with Saxony. Kubicki also distributes against the world medical chief Montgomery.
Neumünster – “We act quickly, consistently and immediately – and very much hope that it works,” said Markus Söder just before the weekend. The FDP parliamentary group vice-president Wolfgang Kubicki sees it completely differently. According to the dpa, he accuses the Bavarian Prime Minister of political negligence in the pandemic.
Söder puts his own career ambitions before protecting the population, said Kubicki on Sunday at an FDP state party conference in Neumünster, Schleswig-Holstein. “That is characterless and humanly pathetic.”
Söder’s corona policy: Kubicki focuses on a low vaccination rate in Bavaria
The pandemic situation is particularly difficult in southern Germany, said Kubicki. He referred to the comparatively low vaccination rates in Bavaria and Saxony. Hundreds of deaths in these countries are the fault of political negligence.
Kubicki warned of a social split. “Everyone only fights for himself.” When commentators demand that he be banned from talk shows because he campaigns for fundamental rights, “then something is going wrong in this country”.
Kubicki calls Montgomery “Saddam Hussein the medical profession”
The world medical chief Frank Ulrich Montgomery called Kubicki because of his criticism of the behavior of the FDP as “Saddam Hussein of the medical profession”. Montgomery had recently sharply criticized the Standing Vaccination Commission (Stiko). – but also politics. Certain representatives had “failed in words and actions in many places,” said Montgomery Rheinische Post“Said from November 15th.
Montgomery had stated: “Anyone who apodictically says ‘No compulsory vaccination and never again lockdown’ has not understood the epidemiology of the virus and plays into their hands.” Representatives of the SPD and FDP are against a general vaccination requirement. The FDP in particular insisted on freedom rights, but there were also some Union and even Green politicians.
Kubicki has now apologized to Montgomery for his Hussein comparison. “He called me and apologized,” Montgomery told the Editorial network Germany. Accordingly, Kubicki did not think of the mass murderer, but only of Hussein’s mustache.
Corona in Bavaria: Söder tightened corona rules in all areas
The background to Kubicki’s attack are probably the new corona measures in Bavaria. The new package is not to be finally decided in the cabinet until Tuesday (November 23) and then discussed in the state parliament – this is necessary for such cuts, said CSU boss Söder. All measures should then come into force on Wednesday night.
From then on, strict contact restrictions will apply to unvaccinated people. All clubs, discos and bars have to close for three weeks, Christmas markets have been canceled. Cultural and sporting events are only allowed to take place on a much smaller scale. In extreme hotspots, large parts of public life are also shut down.
