German state parliament majority backs resolution to end Ukraine aid, restore Russia ties

In Saxony-Anhalt, the far-right AfD and left-wing BSW, holding a combined majority, plan to pass a joint resolution calling for an end to German military aid to Ukraine and a restoration of ties with Russia. This marks the first time these ideologically opposed parties have cooperated on a major foreign-policy initiative, signaling a potential shift in regional political dynamics. The resolution is symbolic at the state level but could amplify pressure on federal policy ahead of national elections.
