Federal Government: Scholz does not want to ask for vote of confidence in the Bundestag

The poll numbers are bad and there are big disputes within the traffic light coalition. The Chancellor might even think about giving up and calling new elections. But he doesn’t do that.

Chancellor Olaf Scholz does not want to ask the question of confidence in the Bundestag and thus initiate an early federal election. The government has a majority to do the tasks that are now at stake, said the SPD politician in a summer interview with ZDF. “It’s a little opposition idea to say this word every three weeks.”

Scholz assumes that forming a government in Germany will be difficult for the foreseeable future. “If I may share my toothache with you: I fear that no matter how things turn out in the next few years, we will have constellations in Germany for many, many years to come in which it will be very complicated to form governments.” This will be seen at the federal level as well as in the states.

“And that’s why it’s important that we work together to create a style in which the fact that parties govern together, who perhaps didn’t think of it when they were born, still ends up getting something done.” The traffic light coalition has achieved a lot on this level.
