Saxony-Anhalt: Government without AfD? SPD wants to explore options in Magdeburg

The SPD has invited representatives from CDU, Greens, Left, and BSW to discuss forming a government in Saxony-Anhalt, two weeks after the state election. The talks, set to take place in Magdeburg on Tuesday, aim to explore possibilities for a stable and effective government. The Greens and Left have accepted the invitation, while CDU leader Sven Schulze will discuss it with his board and BSW faction leader Thomas Schulze expressed surprise that the strongest faction, AfD, was not invited.

The SPD is open to discussing a non-partisan prime minister and a potential coalition, with the goal of finding a stable government for Saxony-Anhalt.
