After the state elections in the federal state, the North Rhine-Westphalian SPD general secretary Nadja Lüders sees the government mandate initially with the CDU and the Greens.

"Of course, the government mandate lies with the CDU and the Greens, who I congratulate warmly on their success, especially the Greens.

But we are ready for talks," Lüders told Westdeutscher Rundfunk on Sunday.
