Deputy prime minister François Bausch, of the Greens, has predicted that a DP-CSV coalition is on the horizon for Luxembourg.
“It would be a bitter pill,” he said in an RTL interview as results rolled in on Sunday evening, adding that the Greens in opposition would have to “defend ecological and social policies”.
With the LSAP and déi Gréng potentially ousted from government, Bausch spoke of a centre-right coalition under the DP and CSV.
“Luxembourg will see what that means,” he said. “It won’t be a good time.”
Regardless of the results, Bausch, who is also the transport minister, will not remain in government, saying in 2019 he would not stay in office after Sunday's election.
