Annalena Baerbock and Robert Habeck will hand over the chairmanship of the party.
But who will take over the successor?
Everyone is silent, but two names are in the foreground.
Berlin - If Robert Habeck and Annalena Baerbock have ministerial offices in a new government, they have to - according to the party statutes - give up their chairmanship to the Greens.
To hold the office of chairman in a party like the Greens is "a backbreaking job" and by no means a "representative office", said Habeck again expressly on Tuesday.
That is why "being a minister and party leadership excluded".
The Greens are led by a double leadership, which should consist of a male and a female manager.
In addition - and here Baerbock and Habeck were an exception - the offices between the left wing and the wing of the Realos should be filled equally.
After Baerbock and Habeck: Ricarda Lang and Omid Nouripour are traded as successors
Two successors are brought into play for the chairmanship: Ricarda Lang and Omid Nouripour.
The facts about the two possible successors of Baerbock and Habeck:
Ricarda Lang:
Former top woman of the youth organization Green Youth, 27 years old, social politician from
near Stuttgart and just moved into the Bundestag for the first time at the age of 27.
She belongs to the left wing of the party.
Omid Nouripour:
46 years old, experienced foreign politician, Frankfurter with Iranian roots, in the Bundestag for 15 years,
Alone: The two are sternly silent when asked about their ambitions.
"No comment," said Nouripour succinctly.
Baerbock and Habeck: What's next for the Greens chairmen?
If the coalition negotiations are successful, it is almost certain that Robert Habeck and Annalena Baerbock will fill ministerial posts.
Robert Habeck is - like Christian Lindner (FDP) - traded for the Ministry of Finance, as well as for the Ministry of the Interior.
Annalena Baerbock would be a candidate for a climate ministry.
Because the offices of the ministerial posts at the Greens have to be divided between the real and the left wing, Anton Hofreiter would be an option for other ministries.
He is assigned to the left wing - unlike Baerbock and Habeck.
But here, too, the following applies: Nobody from coalition negotiating circles has yet spoken publicly about ministerial posts.
