This afternoon not a single cloud hangs in the sky over Ottobrunn. The sun can therefore unfold its full power. Florian Schardt's app shows that the photovoltaic system, which has been in operation on the roof of his house since July, is currently producing 9.84 kilowatt hours of electricity - and that 6.27 kilowatts are being drawn off at the same time. "That's the car that's just hanging on it," explains the SPD faction spokesman in the Munich district council,...
Russlands früherer Präsident Dmitri Medwedew hat die gemeinsame Kiew-Reise von Bundeskanzler Olaf Scholz, dem französischen Präsidenten Emmanuel Macron und dem italienischen Ministerpräsidenten Mario Draghi als nutzlos kritisiert. „Die europäischen Fans von Fröschen, Leberwurst und Spaghetti lieben es, Kiew zu besuchen“, schrieb Medwedew auf seinem Twitter-Account. „Mit null Nutzen.“ Die Politiker müssten mit dem Zug reisen wie vor 100 Jahren. Sie stellten der Ukraine eine EU-Mitgliedschaft und „alte Haubitzen“ in Aussicht, meinte Medwedew, der mittlerweile stellvertretender Vorsitzender des russischen Sicherheitsrates ist....
After the distribution of the ministerial posts, the Greens transport politician Anton Hofreiter is left empty-handed when it comes to filling positions on the railway supervisory board. The Greens surprisingly decided on Tuesday to send transport politician Stefan Gelbhaar to the supervisory board of Germany's largest state-owned company. The group announced this in the evening. Gelbhaar is the transport spokesman for his parliamentary group. Hofreiter was also under discussion for the post.The governing parties and the Ministry of Transport have...
Even columnists have little secrets. For example, it's not at all true that we spend weeks fiddling with tricky formulations. It's more like saying to yourself, "Oops, is it my turn again?" In recent years, when looking for a topic, it often helped a lot to take a look: what did Andi Scheuer say, what did Hubert Aiwanger say and what did the current CSU general secretary say? All we know now about the Aiwanger is that he was in...
People are constantly reminded of how terrible their life is on the outside. Appearance is important, content is of secondary importance - how many studies have already scientifically proven that. And of course it still makes sense when the parents say: "Dress nicely for the exam." Because the world out there is not only terrible, it is also terrible on the outside.Of course, there is a lot to think about when it comes to the new glasses that Friedrich Merz...
The young volunteers who enthusiastically marched to the front in 1914 allegedly had Hölderlin in their knapsacks. And it was also said about the German soldiers of the Second World War that they felt they had to defend the world of the great romantic poet against the Bolshevik barbarians. What those who are currently calling for arms are carrying in their intellectual luggage still awaits historical analysis. In any case, they are not Brecht, Böll or Willy Brandt. It is...
He used to dry lilies, now environmental politician Anton Hofreiter rattles off tank names like Latin vocabulary. Many of the Greens fear that he is not only concerned with Putin's war.Of Constanze von Bullion, BerlinHe may not be a minister, but he is a man on a mission. And even if he's getting on the nerves of his own people: Hofreiter Toni will probably continue to fight for Ukraine. "Something's happening," he says in a very friendly and gentle way....
It was good that the Greens once argued about war missions. And it's terrifying how they and their milieu don't do it anymore. When will arguments go in all directions again in this country?essay by Hilmar KluteThere is a somber poem by Georg Heym about the war that starts like this: "He has risen who slept long / Risen from deep beneath the vault." As if the threatening backdrop wasn't gigantic enough, it continues as follows: "In the twilight he...
In the early part of last year's federal election campaign, the Green Anton Hofreiter was asked whether his party wanted to ban single-family homes. No, Hofreiter replied, but then talked so much about urban sprawl and the consumption of building materials that the interview passed as a plea against single-family homes. A tabloid newspaper, which cheekily attributed the "ban" to Hofreiter, did one thing on top of that. And among the Greens, some trembled that the debate "will become the...
Der ukrainische Oppositionspolitiker Viktor Medwedtschuk hat sich in einem Video für einen Gefangenentausch angeboten. Der als enger Vertrauter des russischen Präsidenten Wladimir Putin geltende Medwedtschuk schlug in dem vom ukrainischen Geheimdienst am Montag veröffentlichten Video vor, dass er an Russland übergeben werden solle. Im Gegenzug könnten in Mariupol festsitzende ukrainische Soldaten und Zivilisten die Hafenstadt über einen Fluchtkorridor verlassen. Er appellierte sowohl an Putin als auch an den ukrainischen Präsidenten Wolodymyr Selenskyj. Es war unklar, wie frei der Putin-Vertraute in dem auf Facebook geposteten...
