After the state parliament election: Berlin's Left wants to hold exploratory talks with the Greens and SPD

The Left party, which won the Berlin election with 25.7%, plans to hold exploratory talks with the Greens and SPD to form a government. The party's delegates voted in favor of the talks with a broad majority, and the party leadership will now officially invite the other parties. The talks are expected to start next week, with separate meetings with the Greens and SPD before moving to three-way discussions.

The Greens and SPD have expressed willingness to engage in talks, despite some skepticism about a potential alliance with The Left.
