"After weeks of negotiations, a coalition agreement between CDU, BSW, and SPD in Thuringia has been approved by a majority of SPD members (68%), securing the path for the first such coalition in Germany. The CDU and BSW had already approved the deal; the distribution of ministries is now finalized.", "CDU will take four ministries, BSW three, and SPD two, with portfolios reassigned. The BSW secures the finance ministry, while the CDU takes key areas like economy and education. SPD retains interior and gains social affairs.", "The upcoming vote for Minister President Voigt is critical due to a 44-44 seat split in the parliament between the coalition and opposition.
