German Greens sceptical of coalition with right
A leader of Germany’s Greens today knocked down conservatives’ hopes the party would help opposition leader Angela Merkel become chancellor in a coalition government, citing major differences with her Christian Democrats and their pro-business ally.
Meanwhile, Franz Muentefering, the chairman of Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder’s Social Democrats, said he and Schroeder would be meeting the Christian Democrat leadership tomorrow to explore if they could form a coalition.
