After the collapse of the traffic-light coalition, Chancellor Scholz faces pressure from opposition leader Friedrich Merz to call a vote of confidence immediately.
Friedrich Merz stated, 'The government no longer has a majority in the German Bundestag and so we have to call on the Federal Chancellor...to call a vote of confidence immediately.'
Chancellor Scholz maintains he will not rush into a confidence vote, planning to continue with a minority government until January 15.
Scholz's refusal to hastily call for a confidence vote indicates his strategy to stick to his own timetable despite pressures from the opposition.
