State Parliament Election: Berlin's Left, Greens and SPD to Talk from Thursday
The Left party wants to talk to the Greens and the SPD about a new government in Berlin. Now it has been confirmed when the talks will start – and what the first topic will be.
The Left, Greens, and SPD, who won the Berlin election, will start talks on forming a government on Thursday. The discussions, described as a "joint preliminary conversation," will focus on combating antisemitism and protecting Jewish life, as well as racism, organized crime, and social cohesion. The Greens and SPD emphasized that an agreement on these issues is a prerequisite for further negotiations.
The talks come amid criticism of the Left's stance on Israel and Palestine, and recent controversy surrounding a party attended by a leader of an Arab clan and a pro-Palestinian activist linked to the EU-designated terrorist organization PFLP.
