The Greens chairman Robert Habeck has rejected the request from CDU leader Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer to approach the coalition partner CDU there in the coalition crisis in Saxony-Anhalt.

"The CDU leadership in the person of Ms. Kramp-Karrenbauer implicitly calls on the Greens and the SPD to overturn the State Broadcasting Treaty," Habeck told ntv.de.

"With that she falls in the back of her own Prime Minister (Reiner Haseloff)." The Magdeburg Kenya coalition has quarreled over a fee increase for public broadcasting.

Kramp-Karrenbauer had made the SPD and the Greens responsible.

Now “all responsible forces have to work with the Prime Minister to ensure political stability,” she told the German press agency.

Haseloff made suggestions for this.

"The decision now lies in particular with the SPD and the Greens, who have to become aware of their political responsibility."

In the Magdeburg coalition agreement, contribution stability is agreed for public broadcasting.

The SPD and the Greens want to agree to the contribution increase agreed between the state governments, the CDU not.

The opposition AfD is also against it.

Together, the CDU and AfD would have a majority - the SPD and the Greens threaten the end of the coalition in the event that it occurs.

Habeck reiterated a proposal to decide on the increase, but only to put it into effect after negotiations on possible structural reforms.
