The new coalition agreement for 2025-2030 contains impressive headlines and spearheads, but on closer inspection it is mainly the lack of concrete policy that stands out. Under the banner \"Together towards a socially just and prosperous society,\" the five coalition partners string together fine ideals ranging from sustainable economic development and strengthening the rule of law to inclusiveness and youth policy without formulating any clear action steps. At first glance, the document looks full of ambition, but in everything it feels like a ChatGPT-generated agreement: lots of titles, few implementable plans, and no answer to the crucial question of how the government actually intends to deliver on its promises, and this was already in play for all party programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Instead of elaborate policies, the agreement contains a series of slogans: \"efficient governance,\" \"inclusive participation\" and \"sustainable development.\" Crucial questions remain unanswered: what laws will follow? How will financial resources be distributed? Which departments will bear what responsibilities? This missing \"how-question\" means that no one, especially entrepreneurs, knows where we stand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Timelines are also lacking. There is talk of short-term recovery and structural reforms, but nowhere does it say when which bill will be introduced or what concrete milestones must be achieved by 2026, 2027 or 2028. Measures of results, reporting requirements and budget pass-throughs are not to be found.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The coalition agreement looks more like a ChatGPT brief than a policy document, even texts like \"strengthening implementation and supervision mechanisms\" and \"harmonious economic diversification\" follow one another without any real substantiation. Where businesses and citizens now urgently need clarity on regulation, financing and implementation, it all remains vague.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Despite the promising headlines, this agreement lacks substance; like an AI assignment, it is without real policy force. What needs to happen is to translate these words into concrete legislation and action plans so that entrepreneurs can plan. Unfortunately, without that translation, the coalition agreement remains a cretinous document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
