The Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and Social Democratic Party (SPD) are at odds over pension reform, specifically the abolition of 'retirement at 63'. CDU faction leader Thorsten Frei rejects the proposal from three eastern German state premiers to retain the pension-free retirement after 45 years of insurance. SPD's Tim Klüssendorf questions the CDU's stance, while SPD General Secretary Klüssendorf wants to stick to the pension without deductions after 45 years of contributions. The pension commission's proposal to abolish 'retirement at 63' faces internal criticism within the CDU, with some arguing it benefits healthier people and men disproportionately.
