The two ministerial posts of the Greens in Thuringia's red-red-green state government will not be taken over by members of the state parliamentary group.

After the parliamentary group leader Astrid Rothe-Beinlich, the parliamentary secretary, Madeleine Henfling, also said on Monday that she would remain in the group and not seek government office.

Erfurt - "I will continue to assume my responsibility in the group," said Henfling of the German Press Agency in Erfurt.

"The faction will not change."

The Greens are the smallest faction in the state parliament with five members.

As a result, their five MPs have to perform a variety of tasks in various committees and bodies.

Rothe-Beinlich had already made it clear in early January that she would not go into government.

She and Henfling were traded as possible ministerial candidates.

The Greens-Spitze want to inform on Monday afternoon in Erfurt about a personnel reorganization.

The reason for this is the resignation of Environment Minister Anja Siegesmund (Greens).

Shortly before Christmas, she announced that she would be leaving the government at the end of January for personal reasons.

The second government member of the Greens, Justice and Migration Minister Dirk Adams, has now been asked by the Greens' state spokesmen Ann-Sophie Bohm and Bernhard Stengele to resign.

However, Adams disagrees and does not want to go voluntarily.
