BERLIN (Reuters) - Germany s pro-business Free Democrats (FDP) will have to accept smaller income tax cuts than they had previously wanted, their leader said on Tuesday, signaling compromise in discussions with two other parties on forming a new government. FDP leader Christian Lindner said his party would not be able to push for tax relief totaling 30-40 billion euros  ($35-46 billion) and will instead seek to get the Greens and the conservatives to accept an abolition of the  solidarity tax  introduced after reunification in 1990 to support poorer eastern states.
