.: The federal spokesman for the Green Youth, Georg Kurz, considers a cooperation with the FDP in a government coalition to be feasible.
“I perceive a common interest in reaching an agreement.
It can be something, ”he said on the Bavarian radio on Wednesday.
Despite points of conflict with the liberals, he assumed that a traffic light coalition would be formed from the SPD, the Greens and the FDP in order to achieve the climate protection goals.
In his view, the Union is not ready to form a coalition, said Kurz with a view to an equally possible Jamaica alliance with the Greens and the FDP under the leadership of the CDU / CSU.
"Not even the Union itself believes that it works with it at the moment."
Explorations: CDU man Althusmann does not consider Jamaica in the federal government to be very likely
Update from October 6, 6:31 a.m
.: Can the Union form a Jamaica coalition?
Lower Saxony's CDU chairman Bernd Althusmann rates the chances as low after the talks between the Union and the Greens.
"In my opinion, such an alliance is still possible, but not very likely," said Althusmann to the editorial network in Germany.
"The tendencies currently seem to be more towards traffic lights."
Provided, however, that the FDP and the Greens had not yet made a decision on traffic light explorations, Althusmann pleaded for a discussion with them and the Union: “As long as the previous explorations between the FDP and the Greens do not rule this out, all three would meet Partner of a possible Jamaica coalition makes sense. "
Greens and FDP want to evaluate exploratory talks on Wednesday - and both criticize the Union
First report from October 5
: Berlin - A good week after the federal election, the Greens and the FDP want to quickly clarify their next steps to form a government after initial explorations.
Green leader Annalena Baerbock announced on Tuesday after a meeting with the leaders of the CDU and CSU in Berlin decisions for the next few days.
The federal executive board, the party council and the 24-strong exploratory team want to take stock on Wednesday morning.
The board of the FDP also wants to discuss the course this Wednesday.
The Union again campaigned for a Jamaica alliance with the Greens and the FDP in competition with an SPD-led traffic light coalition.
The Greens were cautious.
The black-green meeting ended a first run with separate exploratory talks after the election.
Exploratory talks after the federal election: Greens and FDP accuse Union breach of trust
Enthusiasm triggered another indiscretion a few hours after the meeting.
The
Bild
newspaper reported on statements by the Greens on the topics of EU finances, migration and the exit from the internal combustion engine.
On all of these points there is a known potential for conflict between the positions of the Union and the Greens.
The Greens then accused the CDU / CSU of breaching the agreed confidentiality.
“There have been four exploratory talks in the last few days.
From two you read and hear nothing.
Two of the alleged contents of a conversation are pierced to the media.
That is noticeable, dear Union - and it's annoying! ", Wrote the Green Secretary Michael Kellner on Tuesday evening in a tweet that was immediately shared by several other Green politicians.
He used almost the same wording as on Monday FDP Vice Johannes Vogel, who complained about indiscretions after the meeting of the Union and the FDP.
"Thanks to @johannesvogel for the template," wrote Kellner in another tweet.
Explorations between the parties are ongoing: Laschet speaks of a good atmosphere
At the joint press conference after the black-green conversation, the CDU chairman Armin Laschet spoke of a good atmosphere and an open exchange. Contrasts have become clear, but it is not the case that they cannot be overcome. This would have to be deepened. “It would be worth it.” An alliance with the FDP and the Greens could have a breadth in society that would make it possible to modernize and advance the country. "But of course the FDP and the Greens will decide whether the next way will go like this."
A Jamaica coalition is seen as the only chance for Laschet to save the Chancellery for the Union despite heavy losses in the election.
The SPD around Olaf Scholz as the new strongest force is aiming for a traffic light coalition with the Greens and FDP.
The Greens prefer this, but have not ruled out an alliance with the Union and the FDP.
The FDP showed itself to be inclined to the Union, but has not yet committed itself.
Explorations after the federal election: Habeck sees intersections and divisions with Union
Green leader Robert Habeck said that in the conversation with the Union possible overlaps had been explored, but there were also divisions.
"Today and tomorrow" - that is, on Tuesday and Wednesday - should now be compared internally to see what is possible.
Baerbock spoke of a constructive and serious conversation.
In socio-political areas, the Greens and the Union tend to be further apart, but in other areas there are common concerns, such as digitization and ecological transformation.
The Greens met with the SPD last Sunday.

CSU boss Markus Söder said that the first meeting with the Greens was shaped by the will to explore which "bridges" could be tread together.
Many points have been "closely approximated", including the important topic of climate.
In other areas, however, there is still a lot of need for discussion - for example on the subject of migration.
"If everyone were ready to approach each other, I think there would be great opportunities to continue such a conversation," said Söder.
