The newly elected Saxon Parliament has commenced its first session, marked by a call for fairness and decency from the senior president, Wolf-Dietrich Rost.

Despite the CDU's narrow victory over the AfD in the recent elections, the formation of a coalition government with BSW and SPD is proving challenging.

The election of vice presidents highlighted these difficulties, as BSW's Jörg Scheibe and SPD's Albrecht Pallas required multiple rounds to secure their positions.

The CDU's Alexander Dierks was elected as the youngest Landtag President with 97 votes.

A new procedural rule was also adopted, allowing for more dynamic debates.

The session underscored the need for cooperation amidst a diverse political spectrum, as emphasized by Rost's appeal for respectful discourse.
