German Chancellor Olaf Scholz lost a no-confidence vote in parliament, leading to potential dissolution and new elections. He received 207 votes, far from the 367 needed for majority. The vote followed the collapse of a three-way coalition over fiscal policy disagreements. President Frank-Walter Steinmeier will decide on parliament's dissolution, with elections required within 60 days. Scholz criticized the Free Democratic Party (FDP) for its role in the coalition's failure, while opposition leaders accused him of mismanagement. The CDU currently leads in polls, with uncertain coalition prospects ahead. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
