Saxon Green politician Wolfram Günther believes that the Free State of Saxony is in a deep political crisis. In an interview with the "Sächsische Zeitung" newspaper, he accuses the state government of no longer being able to act. Günther was Minister for the Environment, Climate Protection, Energy and Agriculture in the last legislative period.
He blames the crisis on several points. "Firstly, we no longer have a state government that is really capable of taking action, i.e. a government that has its own majority - that has never happened before. We have a secure far-right party that regularly achieves strong results in elections," he explained with regard to the AfD.
