AfD seeks majority in Saxony-Anhalt, BSW refuses support

Three weeks after the Saxony-Anhalt state election, the AfD is courting the BSW to secure a majority for its candidate Ulrich Siegmund, but the BSW has refused to back him. The SPD's last counterproposal appears insufficient, leaving the government formation in a stalemate. This reflects the fragmentation of German state politics and the difficulty of forming coalitions without mainstream parties.
