Germany's Greens will negotiate hard before potentially giving their much-needed backing to debt reforms proposed by the conservatives and Social Democrats, parliamentary co-leader Katharina Droege said on Wednesday.
The conservatives and SPD, who are in talks to form a government after an election last month, need the Greens to reach the two-thirds majority needed in parliament to pass their plans to reform the debt brake and create a 500 billion euro fund for infrastructure.
"Whether we will ultimately approve these constitutional amendments remains open," Droege told reporters. "We have a number of questions, and you know that we also have our own stance on what is necessary now."
