  "account": "The German coalition government is facing a crisis after the election of AfD politician Tobias Rausch as President of the Saxony-Anhalt state parliament. The SPD has accused the CDU of secretly backing Rausch, with Defence Minister Boris Pistorius describing it as a \"taboo break\" in parliamentary democracy. The incident has strained relations between the coalition partners, with both sides accusing each other of working to end the coalition. A meeting between coalition leaders on Wednesday aims to address the tensions and rebuild trust.",
  "summary": "The Union and SPD accuse each other of wanting to blow up the coalition. At the Chancellor's Office on Wednesday, it's all about one thing: restoring trust.",
