- Meier Issue Alerts Regarding potential Advancements in Baseball Bat Technology
Saxony's Justice Minister and Green Party co-leader Katja Meier brought up the concern of a resurgence in right-wing extremism, comparing it to the "Baseball Bat Years 2.0," referring to the 1990s post-reunification era when right-wing extremist intimidation and violence occurred. "We need to safeguard our state from threats both within and outside," she asserted, mentioning right-wing extremism, organized crime, and Islamic terrorism as significant challenges. In her opinion, she didn't need guidance or sensationalist headlines from Friedrich Merz, the CDU leader.
co-leader and Energy Minister Wolfram Günther emphasized that the election was about core values. "Those who feel positively towards progressive ideas see this place as their home," he underscored. He highlighted the difference that Green Party governance would make in the state.
Green group leader in parliament Franziska Schubert called out Michael Kretschmer, the CDU's prime minister, as a "prime minister galloping across the country like the four horsemen of the apocalypse," who seems to gain confidence. She promised steadfast support for Ukraine, expressing that this commitment would remain as long as necessary.
The concern of right-wing extremism, as mentioned by Katja Meier, is once again gaining traction, bringing back memories of the 'Baseball Bat Years 2.0'. Right-wing extremists have been identified as one of the significant challenges that threaten Saxony's security, along with organized crime and Islamic terrorism.
