German President Dissolves Bundestag After Scholz's Confidence Vote Loss, Sets Election for February 23, 2025
Dec 27, 2024, 09:54 AM
German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier has dissolved the Bundestag, paving the way for new parliamentary elections to be held on February 23, 2025. This decision follows Chancellor Olaf Scholz's loss of a confidence vote on December 16, after the collapse of the 'Ampel' coalition comprising the SPD, Greens, and FDP in November. The dissolution was formally requested by Scholz, and Steinmeier's announcement clears the path for the upcoming election, which had been agreed upon by the leaders of the SPD and Union parties.
