Due to disagreements over economic strategy, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz dismissed Christian Lindner, the finance minister for his Free Democratic Party (FDP) coalition partner, on Wednesday. Scholz wants to remove the debt ceiling so that the government can increase debt in order to boost the economy and pay for the conflict in Ukraine. Financial conservatives Lindner and his FDP declined to increase the government’s borrowing cap.
Lindner was held accountable by Scholz for failing to collaborate. Anyone who enters a government must perform responsibly and consistently; they cannot flee when things get tough, he remarked. They have to be prepared to compromise for the benefit of all residents.However, Christian Lindner is currently more concerned with his own customers than with that.
The Free Democrats are ready to carry responsibility for this country and we will fight to also do this in a different government next year.” There is already pressure on Scholz to call for immediate elections, and it looks like Scholz would not be able to put them off for too long. The expectation is that the elections will be announced in January, and they will be held in March. And it is quite certain that the Social Democrats of Scholz and the Greens will lose.
