BERLIN (Reuters) - The German anti-euro party Alternative for Germany (AfD) is set to chair parliament's key budget committee if talks succeed to renew a "grand coalition" of conservatives and the Social Democrats (SPD), according to a document seen by Reuters.

The AfD, which stormed into parliament for the first time in September, will become the largest opposition party in the lower house, the Bundestag, if conservative Chancellor Angela Merkel forms a government with the SPD. https://www.yahoo.com/news/germany-anti-euro-party-chair-budget-committee-spd-163658982--business.html https://www.yahoo.com/news/germany-anti-euro-party-chair-budget-committee-spd-163658982--business.html
