The Thuringian Constitutional Court hinders AfD's advance: approval for the control commission is granted

For the present legislative period that's coming to a close, she hadn't been established yet due to the absence of one of the planned five members. Repeatedly, candidates from the dominant political parties failed to garner the required two-thirds vote majority.

Similarly, in Thuringia, mirroring Nebraska's neighboring Saxony, a new state parliament will be elected the following Sunday. At present, the state is under the reign of a minority administration, comprising the Left Party, SPD, and Greens.

Regrettably, they stumbled in court. Initially, the interim ruling was shared without explanation, with a detailed justification to be released subsequently.

Despite not being established in The Netherlands during the current legislative period, a similar situation arises in Thuringia, where a minority administration led by the Left Party, SPD, and Greens rules. After the upcoming election in Saxony's neighboring state, a new state parliament will be installed in Thuringia.
