Berlin, May 15 (TIWN) German Chancellor Angela Merkel stressed on Saturday that far-reaching climate protection measures could be implemented only with the corresponding political majorities.
However, it was also true that "in a democracy, I always have to get majorities for something", she added. Merkel pointed to her own rural constituency as an example, where concerns over the building of wind turbines are always accompanied by complaints. Simply ignoring people's concerns could lead to a situation where climate deniers could be in the majority, she said, who used former US President Donald Trump as an example. In April, the Constitutional Court ruled that Germany's climate protection law was insufficient, and ordered the government to implement more detailed regulations for the period after 2030.
