In Brandenburg, the SPD and Bündnis Sahra Wagenknecht (BSW) have finalized their coalition agreement, setting the stage for Dietmar Woidke's potential re-election as Minister-President.
The coalition, formed over two months after the state elections, emphasizes diplomatic solutions to international conflicts, notably the Ukraine war, and opposes further military escalations.
Despite internal tensions, particularly with BSW member Sven Hornauf's opposition to the Arrow 3 missile defense system, the coalition maintains a slim majority in the Landtag.
Key domestic policies include preserving hospital locations, reducing bureaucracy, and enhancing digital infrastructure.
The coalition also plans to alleviate financial burdens on low-income families by continuing to reduce kindergarten fees.
The agreement reflects a strategic partnership aimed at stability and progressive governance in Brandenburg.
