Stuttgart (dpa / lsw) - Baden-Württemberg's Prime Minister Winfried Kretschmann (Greens) does not want to be pushed into a traffic light coalition by the Federal SPD and Vice Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

"I don't really care what Finance Minister Scholz says about it," said the green election winner on Monday evening on SWR television.

It is still completely unclear whether the Greens in the southwest will continue the coalition with the CDU or form a traffic light alliance with the SPD and FDP.

You can't look into his cards yet.

"The deck of cards hasn't even been distributed yet."

The Greens won the state elections on Sunday with 32.6 percent, clearly ahead of the CDU, which only got 24.1 percent.

When asked whether it would not make sense to continue the well-established green-black alliance in the middle of the corona pandemic, Kretschmann said: “Of course that cannot be the point of view.

The legislature lasts five years, hopefully the pandemic will be over in the summer. "

From his point of view, that would not be the right approach.

It is also not yet clear whether the CDU or the SPD and FDP can better fight climate change.

"That will find out who is the right partner for this."

The head of government did not want to rule out that the corona lockdown would have to be tightened again due to the increasing number of infections.

When asked if the store openings were a mistake last week with an incidence of less than 50, he said: “That will find out.

You are always smarter afterwards. "

Try to combine the openings with a test strategy.

"If, of course, the wave of infections really starts to run up again, there can be general closings again - that cannot be ruled out."
