It’s going off well: Greens boss Annalena Baerbock says where to go – and nobody complains. With a hint of the finger she tells Olaf Scholz from the SPD in which direction to go to the stage. And Christian Lindner, head of the Liberals, is now following well. The big gig at the end of an important week is coming up.

All three know that if they step in front of the microphones there will hardly be a way back.
