Discussion: Berlin's top candidates as guests at the VBKI
The first meeting of Berlin's leading candidates at the VBKI heralded the hot phase of the election campaign.
VBKI President Markus Voigtdid not turn his heart into a murder pit. In his welcoming address at the start of the top-level discussion, he referred to the many political construction sites in Berlin where no substantial progress has been made: housing construction, education, mobility and internal security. In front of more than 300 spectators in the hall and hundreds more who followed the evening via livestream, he called on politicians to prevent further division in the city and to finally start implementing the major issues - namely administrative reform. He called for a fresh start "in which pragmatism, not ideology, sets the tone".
