Saxony: Voters have had enough of the traffic light coalition
The recent elections in Saxony have revealed the frustration of voters with the current traffic light coalition. The CDU narrowly won the election, but the people are angry and disappointed with democracy.
It is about changes in migration policy, energy policy, and Germany's stance on arms deliveries to Ukraine. The Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW) will be the kingmaker, without which no government can be formed.
Premier Kretschmer wants to avoid a minority government, and the SPD is a potential coalition partner. The CDU must swallow some bitter pills in coalition negotiations with the BSW.
The AfD will not be part of the government, and the Greens can easily be kept off the cabinet table by the CDU. The new state parliament must convene by October 1, and a new government must take office by February 3, 2025, otherwise, there will be new elections or a minority government.
The situation is complex, and the future of the coalition remains uncertain. The results of the upcoming elections in Brandenburg will likely play a significant role in determining the future of the traffic light coalition.
