Overview
- Minister-President Dietmar Woidke said he expects the SPD/BSW coalition to continue and considers most disputes resolved.
- The BSW faction entered turmoil after four deputies left the party, yet they intend to stay in the parliamentary group and uphold the coalition.
- Two no-confidence motions against faction leader Niels-Olaf Lüders and his deputy Christian Dorst failed by narrow margins, leaving divisions unresolved.
- The BSW state board endorsed keeping the coalition, and Finance Minister Robert Crumbach called for a mediation process.
- The Landtag will vote Wednesday on two media state treaties, where the coalition is seen as lacking its own majority, a majority of BSW lawmakers plan to vote no, the four ex-party deputies plan to leave the chamber, and the CDU says it will support the agreements.
