In Thuringia, the CDU, BSW, and SPD are engaged in exploratory talks to form a new government. One month after the state elections, discussions are centered on agriculture, environment, infrastructure, and social cohesion.

A potential 'bramble coalition' would require support from the opposition, as it holds only 44 out of 88 votes. CDU leader Mario Voigt aims to lead the CDU out of a decade in opposition and become Minister-President.

Meanwhile, the Paritätischer Wohlfahrtsverband Thuringia emphasizes the need for a stable government focused on social justice. The talks, which continue in Erfurt, highlight significant differences, especially in positions on war, peace, and US missile deployment.

Former SPD member Robert Crumbach, now a key figure in BSW, poses additional challenges with his demands for any coalition. As the discussions progress, the parties aim to navigate these complexities to achieve a functional and stable government.
