The CDU in Baden-Württemberg approved the coalition agreement with the Greens on Tuesday. The agreement outlines a collaboration that is criticized by the Green Youth as insufficiently ambitious.

Özdemir supports the coalition but admits that there have been 'painful compromises,' indicating tensions within the parties.

Additionally, Südkurier reports that the exploratory talks between the Greens and the CDU have been slow, which could highlight the challenges of collaboration.

ZEIT emphasizes that the CDU will receive more specialized ministries in the planned government than the Greens, which could influence the power dynamics within the coalition.
