    BSW completely depends on their (Co-) party chairwoman and name giver Sahra Wagenknecht who is simply unwilling to bear gouvernmental responsibility. And she is considered to be a russian mouthpiece.

    Merz ruled out to form a coalition with BSW and I don’t see any sane person who would try to sway this decision.

      Thanks guys for answering. As a Dutch person I don’t know all the details.

      I guess it’s really good you guys have a 5% threshold. Here in the Netherlands, things are just too chaotic without it.

        I mean, CDU/CSU and SPD have a majority with 45% of the votes, and 14% of the votes did not result in seats. That doesn’t sound like an improvement to me. (Compared to the Netherlands - still beter than FPTP systems.)
