Berlin’s mayor calls for stronger coalition unity amid pension reform debates
Berlin’s governing mayor, Kai Wegner, has urged his coalition partners to improve coordination and communication. The CDU politician admitted tensions within the black-red alliance but insisted that compromises must be clearly explained to the public.
Wegner described the government’s draft law on pension levels as a fair compromise in line with the coalition’s original agreement. He acknowledged that disagreements exist but stressed the importance of presenting unified decisions to avoid confusion.
The mayor’s remarks highlight the need for smoother cooperation within Berlin’s coalition. With pension reforms still under debate, Wegner’s focus remains on reducing public anxiety and maintaining political stability. Clear communication of agreed policies will be key in the coming months.
