Söder presents CSU Minister: New trends in education and agriculture!

Deutschland - On April 28, 2025, Markus Söder announced the new CSU minister for the Merz cabinet. The announcement was made live on television after a meeting of the party executive and the state group. In a concise speech, Söder presented the focus of the new ministerial posts, which focus on three central topics: "Law and Order", "Hightech" and "Home".

The Ministry of the Interior will in future be headed by Alexander Dobrindt, who is to implement a comprehensive “change of direction in migration”. This realignment aims to fundamentally reform the integration policy and will come across the public. Dorothee Bär, who takes over the Ministry of Research and Space, is viewed as a symbol for a modern image of the CSU. Your tasks will focus primarily on promoting innovation and technology.

The new ministers and their areas of responsibility

Also new in black and red is Alois Rainer, a trained butcher who will lead the Ministry of Agriculture. Söder expressed himself humorously about the challenges of agricultural policy and made it clear: "Leberkäs instead of tofu-Teielschei". This statement not only shows the focus on traditional values, but also an attempt to connect to the rural electorate.

These appointments are in the context of the current political landscape, in which the CSU tries to present itself more modern and accessible. The ministries also reflect the efforts to operate old electoral centers and to address new target groups. The balancing act between tradition and progress will be decisive in the coming weeks and months.
