Blackberry coalition
In German politics, a blackberry coalition (German: Brombeerkoalition), also called a black–purple–red coalition or red–purple–black coalition, is a governing coalition between the Christian Democratic Union of Germany (CDU, party colour black), Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD, party colour red) and the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW, party colour purple). Such arrangements were first discussed due to the mathematical possibility of such a new government coalition emerging before the state elections in Saxony and Thuringia in 2024.
