The newly elected Minister President of Saxony, Michael Kretschmer, has seen the election result as a sign of trust. "We can set off together today," said the CDU politician in Dresden immediately after his election. It is a signal of what is possible in the coming years. We can provide security and enable economic development. Kretschmer was elected in the state parliament with 69 votes.
"We can overcome many challenges if we stick together," he said. Kretschmer, who will lead a minority government of CDU and SPD in the future, emphasized the desire to work across party lines. In his speech, he thanked not only the CDU and SPD, but also a "responsible opposition". At the same time, he emphasized that it would not be easy. "We have some tough years ahead of us."
