The radical Greens party is joining a coalition to rule the West German state of Hesse. The state premier, Holger Boerner, said the Greens will get Cabinet posts for the environment and for energy, along with a junior position for women’s affairs. It will be the first time that the Greens, known for their opposition to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization as well as for their pro-environment stance, have taken part in a government coalition.
