With a share of the vote of 6.3 percent in the elections on September 26, the Greens entered the Schwerin state parliament.
Now it is up to the five-member parliamentary group to organize the opposition work.
Schwerin - The Greens who have returned to the Schwerin state parliament have announced that they will be constructive opposition work for the new legislative period. There is definitely the possibility of an exchange with the FDP, said parliamentary group leader Harald Terpe of the German press agency. There are common interests with the FDP such as the protection of minority rights of the small parliamentary groups. The Greens had a share of 6.3 percent of the vote in the state elections and moved to the state parliament with five members. They were not represented in the state parliament in the last electoral term.
Cooperation with the CDU will also be necessary in order to achieve the minority quorum of 25 percent in initiatives, said Terpe.
Like the Greens, the FDP is represented by 5 MPs, the CDU has twelve MPs.
The SPD and the Left are currently negotiating a red-red coalition.
The constituent session of Parliament will take place on October 26th.
The parliamentary work is already starting now, said Terpe, who sat for his party in the Bundestag from 2005 to 2017.
“We will present our applications.
Then it will be seen whether the promises that the small parliamentary groups will be taken into account or whether there will be thorough governance keep the promises. "
It also remains to be seen how the CDU will behave if the Greens want to reinstall a parliamentary committee of inquiry to clarify events in the constitutional protection of MV.
His experience in the Bundestag showed that it is possible to successfully complete projects in parliament from within the opposition.
A collaboration with the AfD (14 MPs) ruled out Terpe.

The new AfD parliamentary group in the state parliament re-elected its chairman Nikolaus Kramer after a four-hour session.
Kramer's preferred candidate for the post of Parliamentary Managing Director, Thomas de Jesus Fernandes, on the other hand, had to admit defeat to MP Thore Stein.
"The majority of the parliamentary group decided differently and of course - as it should be - I support this majority decision," said Kramer on Friday after the election.

At the same time, the green faction will not refuse to support the future government if it sets the right accents.
However, many of the Greens' demands, for example on climate protection, are "at least not congruent" with those of the SPD under Prime Minister Manuela Schwesig.
