Markus Soeder, leader of Germany's Christian Social Union (CSU), said he would accept a decision by the larger Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party if they were to back his rival Armin Laschet as the conservative bloc's chancellor candidate.
"If the CDU makes a clear decision tonight, then we would accept that," he told a news conference in Munich. "The CDU is the stronger and bigger sister and only they can decide if this broad majority is there or not."
