Merkel gives nod to Green partnership

Angela Merkel, Germany's Christian Democratic chancellor, on Monday gave her approval to the creation of the first coalition of the CDU and Greens in a move that could transform the country's party-political landscape.

Meanwhile, in an equally ground-breaking decision, the Social Democratic party, junior partner in Ms Merkel's "grand coalition", said it would no longer oppose all forms of co-operation with the Left party in western German states.
