The Reuter cabinet (French: Cabinet Reuter) was the twenty-third government of the Carrelian Confederation, led by Captain-Regent Lars Reuter. It was a centre-left coalition, formed of Reuter's Ensemble, the Radical Party, Christian Union, the Democratic Rally, The Greens, and, until 7 April 2024, New Left and Unite! for Seaforthe.
The cabinet was formed following the 2024 Carrelian general election, in which Ensemble became the second-largest party in the Common Council. After the election, the 7 parties came to a coalition agreement, with New Left and Unite only narrowly approving the composition. Lars Reuter was installed as Captain-Regent on 19 January 2024 through a vote in the Common Council.
On 7 April, New Left and Unite left the coalition after their members rejected continued co-operation. This reduced the coalition's majority significantly. This withdrawal also caused the coalition to lose its majority in the Senate, forcing it to rely on opposition for the passage of bills.
The cabinet fell on 4 June 2024 following a no-confidence vote supported by the Radical Party and The Greens.
