The SPD state executive has spoken out in favor of continuing the government alliance with the Greens and the Left. Coalition talks are to be started with both parties, said Mayor Andreas Bovenschulte.

In the elections to the Bremen parliament on May 14, the SPD won 29.8 percent of the vote. The alliance of red-green-red in a state parliament, which is unique in West Germany, has existed since 2019. However, the Greens are weakened by the election result.
