- The pension plans proposed by Minister Bärbel Bas are deemed unfeasible by Chief of the Chancellery Thorsten Frei.
- Frei highlighted that the inclusion of civil servants in the pension system is not addressed in the coalition agreement.
- He criticized the financial viability of the plan, pointing out the significant decrease in the ratio of workers to retirees.
- Bas's suggestion to include politicians and freelancers faces constitutional challenges, making it unlikely to be implemented.
"That is not common sense in the coalition."— Thorsten Frei (CDU) commented on Bärbel Bas's pension plans in ARD.
