Saxony's CDU Leader Endorses SPD's Woidke in Brandenburg Election

In a surprising move, Saxony's CDU Prime Minister Michael Kretschmer has voiced his support for SPD leader Dietmar Woidke ahead of Brandenburg's state election. Kretschmer's endorsement comes as polls reveal a tight race between the far-right AfD and the SPD, with CDU candidate Jan Redmann trailing behind.

Kretschmer emphasized the importance of stability and reliable governance, warning against an AfD victory, which he fears could lead to destabilization similar to Thuringia. He praised Woidke’s efforts in establishing the Medical University of Lusatia and highlighted their close cooperation in the region.

Woidke has stated he will remain in state politics only if the SPD wins. This endorsement underscores the critical nature of the upcoming election, not just for Brandenburg but for the broader political landscape in Germany.
