Chancellor Olaf Scholz initiated early election procedures by requesting a confidence vote in the Bundestag, indicating the collapse of his coalition with the FDP and the Greens.
After the vote, President Steinmeier has a 21-day window to dissolve parliament, which paves the way for new elections, anticipated within 60 days.
Scholz's leadership is currently in 'caretaker mode' amidst legislative struggles, demonstrating the political instability following the breakup of the traffic light coalition.
The confidence vote is a strategic step to formally transition to new elections, as Scholz aims to clear the way for a new parliamentary coalition.
