Landtag: AfD-Regierung in Sachsen-Anhalt wird wahrscheinlicher: CDU lehnt SPD-Einladung ab
Nach der Niederlage bei der Landtagswahl in Sachsen-Anhalt bleibt die CDU bei ihrem Entschluss: Sie wird nicht an Gesprächen zur Regierungsbildung teilnehmen und geht in die Opposition.
Magdeburg - The CDU in Saxony-Anhalt has rejected an invitation from the SPD to discuss government formation following the state's legislative election. A CDU spokeswoman announced, "The CDU Saxony-Anhalt will not take part in this discussion." The state leadership has decided to go into opposition. "This decision is firm with the state association," she added.
A government formation without the AfD seems unlikely, as the CDU, Greens, and SPD together hold 39 seats, matching the BSW's representation. The AfD also has 39 representatives, requiring 42 votes for a parliamentary majority. To form a government without the AfD, all other parties would need to agree. The SPD's state leaders, Juliane Kleemann and Andreas Schmidt, wrote to the other four parties, stating their responsibility to "seriously examine existing options for forming a stable and capable government."
