Germany: Scholz paves the way for snap elections DW 12/11/2024
Briefly

Chancellor Olaf Scholz is set to apply for a vote of confidence on December 11, marking the initial step towards snap elections in Germany following the collapse of his coalition.
President Steinmeier emphasized the need for 'stable majorities and a government capable of action,' reflecting the urgency of the political situation in Germany.
The collapse of Scholz's coalition, particularly after the FDP's withdrawal, is notable as minority governments are generally rare in Germany, having occurred only five times since 1949.
