PredecessorFourth Woidke cabinet

The fifth Woidke cabinet is the incumbent state government of Brandenburg formed on March 18, 2026. SPD Minister President Dietmar Woidke leads the coalition of his party and the CDU.[1]

After the break of the SPD-BSW coalition in January 2026, Woidke succeeded in forming a coalition with the CDU in March 2026.[2] Technically speaking, the new cabinet is a continuation of the Woidke IV cabinet with a changed coalition basis, as Woidke did not resign and accordingly did not need to stand for a new election as minister-president in the state parliament.
