Relieve emergency services, but also avoid the formation of groups: This justifies a possible ban on firecrackers on New Year’s Eve in a resolution proposed by the federal states. However, the proposal made by the SPD received little approval from the Union.
The federal states led by the CDU and CSU have spoken out against a ban on fireworks this New Year’s Eve. Instead, they are based on “recommendations and appeals”, as it is called in a document for today’s meeting of all the leaders of the countries, which ntv is available. The so-called B countries can only imagine a ban on pyrotechnics in crowded places.
The countries led by the CDU contradict a proposal by the so-called A countries around Berlin’s ruling mayor Michael Müller, who introduced a ban on fireworks this year in a draft resolution. Therefore, the sale, purchase and lighting of pyrotechnics should be prohibited by the end of 2020/21, “in particular to relieve auxiliary and emergency personnel, to keep the capacities of the health system free and avoid larger groups”.
As incumbent president of the conference of prime ministers, Müller has drawn up a resolution for the federal-state meeting scheduled for Wednesday. Today the country’s leaders want to discuss it and clarify the discrepancies.
The federal states agree that the partial lockdown decided by the federal and state governments at the end of October should continue until December 20, as the infection rate remains tense. “Even if the numbers are stabilizing at a high level, you can’t give the go-ahead for a long time,” says the Berlin squad.
The target value is 50 infections per 100,000 population in seven days. These “continue to be applied alongside other key figures as a guiding mark (guiding value) for decisions to relax.” However, federal states below this value should be allowed to relax the measures. Exceptions to the rules for the Christmas holidays and the turn of the year are also being discussed.
Traditionally, when it comes to cross-border decisions, a distinction is made between countries with SPD heads of government (countries A) and those with a government led by the CDU / CSU (countries B), which usually enter into negotiations with common positions. Thuringia with a left prime minister belongs to group A, Baden-Württemberg led by the greens belongs to countries B.
