Eight weeks after the Greens' narrow win in the March state election, they and the CDU have reached a coalition agreement in Baden-Württemberg. Top candidates Cem Özdemir and Manuel Hagel announced it in Stuttgart, with the treaty to be presented next week.
In the runoff election, Green candidate Dominik Krause defeated SPD Mayor Dieter Reiter and will become Munich's first Green mayor. After 12 years in office, Reiter conceded defeat. This marks a historic loss for the SPD.
