Berlin: Linke, Grüne und SPD in Berlin wollen Koalitionsgespräche führen
Die drei Berliner Parteien sind sich in den Sondierungsgespräche nach der Abgeordnetenhauswahl einig geworden. Nun wollen sie über eine rot-grün-rote Koalition verhandeln.
Berlin's Linke, Grüne, and SPD parties plan to hold coalition talks. All three parties invited for a joint press statement at 17:00 in the House of Statistics in Berlin-Mitte to discuss the end of their pre-election discussions. According to party sources, the venue will inform about the pre-election paper and further steps. Before coalition negotiations can begin, party committees must give the green light.
The Greens have convened a small party meeting on Monday to vote on the matter. The SPD is expected to decide on a date based on their pre-election paper, with no specific time mentioned yet. The Left has scheduled a party meeting for October 31st to approve the start of coalition talks, taking into account the Berlin autumn holidays.
If all three parties agree, coalition negotiations could begin in early November. At the September election, the Left emerged as the strongest party with 25.7 percent, followed by the CDU (18.8 percent), AfD (16.3 percent), Greens (14.3 percent), and the SPD (12.1 percent), which had its worst-ever result. The CDU/SPD coalition that had ruled the city lost its majority.
