Left-wing top candidate Dietmar Bartsch has spoken out against compulsory vaccination for Corona. Instead, “all possibilities” should be checked at a vaccination summit, “how to get more people to vaccinate” and advertised for it, said Bartsch on Sunday in the ARD “summer interview.” But he spoke out in favor of compulsory testing on the return journey To control Germany at the borders after a holiday abroad.
Bartsch also called for the disaster control to be reorganized. The federal and state governments would have to check whether a special task force would be needed for cases like the devastating floods last month. “Climate change is obvious and we will be able to have several such catastrophes, so I expect a reorganization,” said Bartsch.
“Correct and sensible”
When asked whether the Bundeswehr should be deployed in such cases, he said it was “right and sensible” that the Bundeswehr had helped there. There is a difference between a disaster and the deployment of the Bundeswehr inside. The fact that it is not used internally “has constitutional status for us, and for good reasons, including historical reasons”. His party also “clearly” rejects combat missions abroad.
The interview had initially started outdoors, but was then moved to the studio because of the rain and a police helicopter circling because of the Corona demonstrations in Berlin. (AFP)
